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.

Hi. I was wondering if it might be possible to compile a dictionary-esque  of 
all the esoteric words used by Wolfe in his various books on the wiki.  
Actually, a compilation of interesting and esoteric words would be fun,  regardless 
of their connection to Wolfe's works. I am not sure if this would be  
feasible, even desirable, because dictionary.com would have many of them, but I  
think even just putting together the choices would be an adventure. People could  
submit in proposals via the mailing list.
