The Secret House within BotNS

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.

Thank you for that correction Mo. I re-did the research and I was in error. 
Rosemary and sweet/dead nettle are separate genuses (genii?) within the mint
family and I got them conflated the first time checking. Ah well.

I still get the feeling Horn and his family are semi-autobiographical. And when
an author named Wolfe with wife Rosemary creates a city where men have 
animal-derived names and women have plant-derived names it might not be
accidental.
