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.

First: _Sidon_ arrived today.  Haven't opened it yet.

Second: Borski, _Long and Short_.  One of the essays is atrociously  
edited: he keeps saying "Pendelton's" for the plural.  His editor  
should have caught this.  Also, he doesn't mention, that I noticed,  
one of the big hints in _5HC_ onomastics: "Phaedrus" means "Wolf";  
"Phaedria" is therefore pretty obvious.  I'm not all that far into  
it; I think he might be right about the werewolf thing.
