ATTENDING DAEDALUS

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Um, no, they didn't actually do that; but if you read up on
the "re-education" camps, it came pretty close at times.
Wolfe simply takes it to satirical extremes.
