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.

St. Louis.

Omnivorous reader.  Perhaps my home territory is SF; it certainly  
where I started and, really, where I generally look first when I'm in  
a bookstore.  If I had to pick one book and one album to be stranded  
on a desert island with, they'd be Thomas Pynchon's _Gravity's  
Rainbow_ and Tom Waits' _Small Change_.
