the elephant in the room

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.

Fate was kind to me in that my mom had a copy of Edith
Hamilton's Mythology and Rouse's translation of the
Illiad on her bookshelf. It wasn't much, but it was a
big enough rabbit hole to get my head and shoulders
in. I never came out. But Wolfe is somewhere else
altogether.
