I can't read it. I understand the word individually, but it reads like he's having a hypoglycemic shock via email.

In all fairness, many people absolutely suck at writing emails.

There are sentences in this email that don’t parse at all; it’s still possible to guess what he probably meant, since humans are highly adept at error recovery for natural languages, but it takes significantly more time.
