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.

On first read I imagined Typhon as human native of Urth.  But Wolfes
naming strategum points at Typhon being of alien origin.  The theory
that Blue/Green is Urth/ Lune has been repeatedly denied by Wolfe so
Im going to rule that out.  The idea that Silk is a clone of Typhon is
interesting though.  Does anyone have any textual evidence to support
this?
