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 really hope to see a decently design edition of BotNS one day - one that 
doesn't rely on pulpy fantasy action scenes. I think the Don Maitz art is 
pretty naf and the Fantasy Masterworks ed is hardly better. The Arrow eds. 
cover art was much much better IMHO, but what I think would be great would 
be something along the lines of a good Penguin cover design - my personal 
choice would be something more abstract, or maybe something involving the 
moon landing painting hanging jarringly on a mediaeval wall.
