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.

Oh, no, Rostrum.  "Peritonitis" should
definitely be Mother's Day, but I have
the same reservations about actually
making that suggestion as you do
about using "All the Hues of Hell" for
the Feast of the Annunciation.

Maybe we should choose "Suzanne
Delage" or "House of Ancestors" in-
stead.

(This, of course, assumes that the
holiday isn't already filled, as I don't
have the book with me.  But I think
Wolfe only has Father's Day in the
_Book of Days_, no?)
