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.

	Interesting, given that one of the stories in _Endangered
Species_ is called _The Other Dead Man_.

>"Mountains Like Mice" [appeared in "If"]

	I've heard of this one - Wolfe mentioned it and I think a big
name editor of the time (Pohl?) bought it, amending the title slightly.

	Many thanks to Mantis and Wombat; I'll look into buying this
in the next few months.

	Derek - completist, not certified (but not far from being)
