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.

In the visionary section at the end of the Long Sun books, the Matachin 
Tower is described as "the Malacic Transport" or some such thing.   I can't 
remember the exact word but the implication is clearly that the Citadel is a 
spaceport and the towers are individual ships.
