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.

Thanks for the news. I'd heard of The Sorcerer's House before - he
really seems to have been doing a lot of work on that one. I'm glad
he's still going forward with it, as the plot sounded quite
interesting. And the emphasis on a house reminds one a bit of Peace.

I recall Wolfe mentioning the plot of another book somewhere, but I
have no idea if that's Home Fires. Interesting title certainly.
