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.

yeah I was wondering about the woman too.  Surely most of the visions
presented to Silk have connections with events in the book (Silk
seeing lights beneath his feet is him seeing the stars out the window
of the Whorl for example) so just who was the woman?  Any thoughts?
Also the patch of skin found on the roof, any thoughts on this?
