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.

Has Waggish read An Evil Guest?

Also, Wolfe has always been a populist right-winger.

Last year at this time I heard him say (as I reported then):

"The form of government I favor is democracy. America is not a democracy 
and never has been. We have a republic. That means that every so often 
we choose people to rule over us. And once we have, you can believe, 
they know it."
