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.

Re: entry for M. d'F (wait a sec, stop right there--"d'F" sure looks
a lot like "d'If," which makes me think of Vance's "Chateau d'If" and
what I presume to be its inspiration, the place in THE COUNT OF MONTE
CRISTO . . . was it the prison itself?  Can't remember) . . .

Add after "sacred places":

--specifically the circular ruins at the mouth of the Tempus and the
sacred cave further upriver, of which he says "I don't know that
anyone has ever seen that."  (This seems to be the trigger for the
quest for the cave.)
