BSG Spoiler

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.

Alan Moore is or is not the author of 'From Hell' and 'V for Vendetta'?

Yes indeed Gene Wolfe's work is overtly political. I find it interesting
that politics is almost never discussed on this list. I would welcome a
discussion of the politics of Wolfe's work.
