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.

I kind of suspect that, though I hadn't connected it with the covenant, since I'm in denial about the existence of /TUotNS/.  The bit in /Shadow/ about the artifacts that have survived so many centuries of futurity, and photographing the era's few extant buildings, doesn't seem compatible with the "previous universe" business.  (AWB, so I'm sorry if I got the wording wrong.)  Just a joke?
