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.

My apologies: Wolfe's pro-gun bias is so clear to me that I did not
anticipate that so many people would question its existence. I will admit
that 'featured prominently in almost every story' is an exagerration: 'it
is a recurring theme' is more accurate.

I find that I need to go through my GW short-story collections and pick
out some examples. I should do this this evening.
