is Gene Wolfe among us?

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.

Just so it is clear, my original post in this thread was completely 
tongue-in-cheek.  If I really thought Roy was Gene Wolfe I wouldn't out him 
in such a cavalier manner.  If there was any purpose to it, other than play, 
it might be as a parable to warn against the dangers of seeking only 
positive evidence when trying to support a pet theory.
