Ansible Interview

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.

That is still pretty much how I see it too.  I could imagine the spiral if
it was a reaaaaaaaaly long spiral so that for any siginficant portion of the
Whirl, it seemed much like the lampshade paradigm that seems supported very
often by the text (these thin strips of sun appearing, etc.)

I don't think there can be any doubt, from the evidence, that the shade
rotates (or the Whorl rotates round it!!!) north south.  But if the
East/West spiral was long enough, you might get the lampshade effect but
still have some distant 'time zone' effect.
