The problem of Cthulhu

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.

"The species is a million years old and for 990,000 of those years we were
sort of half-smart animals scraping out a living. Then, all of a sudden,
ten thousand years ago, something happened, and now we're flying in space."

"Brain Wave" by Poul Anderson. We exited this galactic cloud, see...
