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.

[Posted from URTH, a mailing list about Gene Wolfe's New Sun and other work=
s]

OK, it's been a coupla months now; excitement over the
completion of the Long Sun series has died down; we've all
had a chance to settle in.  So, the big question: is it
worthwhile keeping the Whorl and Urth lists separate, or is
it time to bring 'em together?

And what would the unified list be called?  Orth?  Whurl?  Whulfe?

Send your opinions directly to me (ranjit at best.com).

(p.s. any takers for a Dan Simmons/Hyperion list?)
