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.

Been a while, but I remember it as a film-noir-comedy-mystery.  Some guy
named Free is letting people stay at his house free even tho it's going to
be demolished in a few days.  A witch, a prostitute, a private detective,
you get the idea.  I loved it, not New Sun but one of his weird sorta
mainstream but Wolfe messes with yr head anyways books.  I'd get it.
