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.

Crowley delivered the manuscript to Bantam in August '98, I believe, which
indicates a publication date somewhere in early-mid '99.

_Deamonomania_ is the belief that everything in the world is inhabited by a
small spirit (daemon) which animates it and gives it is specific
properties. Or at least, that's what Crowley claims it means.=20
