jungle hut and buzz

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.

IIRC we established that there is no picture of the original moon 
landing that matches the composition described. It's either a mistake on 
Wolfe's part, a painting (perhaps by Michael Collins or Alan Bean) 
rather than a photograph, or a hint that Urth and Earth have divergent 
histories.
