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.

Hi Urthlings,

I haven't been posting lately but have been enjoying very much the threads
of those who have ... particularly the Ozy v. Sev comparisson, which I don't
think I'll wade into right now ...

HOWEVER, if you have some spare time while waitng for your uncorrected proof
of "ON BLUE'S WATERS" to come in from eBay, I *strongly* recommend you take
a peep at a majestic new book called "A GOD STROLLING IN THE COOL OF THE
EVENING" by Mario De Carvalho.  I believe that anyone who enjoys either the
New Sun or Soldier books will dig this one:  a dying empire, archaic
language, strange religions, a compelling first person narrative by a man of
heartbreaking honour and weakness and more lictors than you can shake a
bundle of fasces at.

If enough people give this book a try I'll look into initiating a Sev v.
Lucius Valerius Quintius comparisson.

Ori
