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.

By the way, I was doing some bathroom reading of LEXICON URTHUS and under the entry Typhon Andre says that some of Typhon's rebelious family members possibly turned into Other Lords and so he came to be also known as "the Father of Monsters". This seems to give some substance to my previous assumption that Great Scylla could have been Cilicia (or whatever her name was) "transformed" into one of the monstrous Lords. Although that doesn't seem to be the case with Cilicia herself (because of Short Sun) it shows that my idea that some of the Lords had been humans before maybe was not all that wrong after all. The problem remains that I don't remember where I got that idea from. I would have to re-read the Book of the New Sun as I'm sure it was there or on Urth of the New Sun.

Huh, I think my opinion in this case leaves a lot to be desired...and now that some people gave me some info (that I had read years ago in the this list but forgotten since) I think I need to get back to the books again.  Anyway, I don't think Blue/Green is Urth/Lune or any combination thereof, so no PLANET OF THE APES scenario for me. But I do keep an open mind...;) I guess I need Andre-Diussi to write "LEXICON, THE LONG AND SHORT OF IT" (tip tip)...
