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.

Not Wolfe related, but I know some of you live in the Bay Area. If you are
also interested in anime and/or would like to hear Michael Andre-Driussi
introduce two anime films by Miyazaki on Wednesday evening, here is the
info. Donations go to charity.
