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 apologize john I am exceptionally guilty of not citing with my travelling job and always accessing the internet through the phone.  There is a scene in Lake of the Long Sun where Silk is trapped under the whorl and immediately before he runs into the chambers sealed by pas he thinks of resting until his mother comes.  Blue eyed mamelta is then awakened, and there is a scene where Silk descends the ladder to see the stars and realize his position in the universe that is jarringly presented with his glance up Mameltas legs.  In this scene he sees his origin in both the universe and in the corporeal sense, catching sight of the womb that conceived him and the primordial mass of space that gave birth to man.
