How *we* can get a special new "retro" edition of 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.

I'm scandalized that you loyal urth list folks are voting other than the
mighty Wolfe!  Treason!  (Though I agree BotNS might be better placed in sf.
 I also voted Hyperion in sf!)
