UotNS and how it screws with your head

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.

Was thinking of this the other day.  BotNS could be adapted for a movie 
(perhaps animated) but the story would have to be simplified and spelled out 
much more than in the book.

Have any of Wolfe's works been made into screen versions?
