How list works and questions to mailers

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 live in San Francisco, although I travel a great deal being a musician, it gives me plenty of time to read. I was turned on the Wolfe by my brother who is a professor at Washington, and know a few other Wolfe readers...
I just turned on my band mate Joe Satriani to Wolfe, and he's enjoying it, but doesn't quite know what he's in for yet...
I love Wolfe, but also enjoy guilty trash reading pleasure when i travel and have no qualms about leaving the book in the seat pocket in front of me..

I used to be very much a sci-fi / fantasy reader, but for the past few years I've been diversifying a lot. So this year I've been reading lots of "mainstream" lit, a good deal of Patrick O'Brian, and a lot of mysteries. Wolfe is one of the few sci-fi authors I still read with any deal of regularity.

I can't say I know any other Wolfe readers in real life, though I'm always trying to make converts. I just gave a copy of The Book of the New Sun to a friend here, so let's hope that there will soon be another Wolfe reader in Dublin...
