SRD on obscurity

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.

I enjoyed the first series, but wasn't nearly as fond of the second.  I don't 
think Covenant is nearly as good as the Gap series, however.  I find it 
rather humorous that Donaldson is being slammed as "unreadable" by Wolfe 
fans.
