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.

Surely Severian is clearly indicating that it is NOT Lune??? It looks like it, but it?s a different colour.? (I don?t think it?s a moon at all.)

I fancied it was old school original white moon (if something as absurd as a white moon around Urth could be imagined!) Some time fluctuation once again.? At the time of Apu-punchau the moon should be white, assuredly.
