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.

>>You Might Be An Urthling, If...

Oh, Mitchell, wonderful - I loved this posting!

Do I count as an Urthling if I've got drives on my network named after
characters and places in the Urth Cycle?  My C: drive is "Conciliator", and
somewhere there's an F: drive called "Fuligin", a G: drive called "Gyoll",
and an H: drive called Hildegrin.

(The nodes and the other drives, incidentally, are named are characters
from Spenser's "The Faerie Queene".  Anyone else got a remote CD-ROM drive
called "Excesse"?)
