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.

- From Isohunt for the most part. Particularly impressive is one group
which regularly releases batches of 'Science Fiction and Fantasy';
it's remarkable how recent releases turn up in their torrents, and how
comprehensive they generally are.

(I just tried searching for Sanderson's recent _Hero of Ages_ since I
was in the middle of it when an acquaintance took it back, and sure
enough, it was in one of their update torrents.)
