Whos met or written to Wolfe

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 must say that such things I have always thought of as obssessive and a bit odd but as Wolfe is a relatively low profile author there is always the tantalising chance of a reply to show the grandchildren. I must say that reading Wolfe has been probably the most enriching experiences in my life and my girlfriend has to put up with my rants of his greatness.
