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.

      But hardly ?the most brilliant white?!  

      I don?t get why you think it?s a moon at all, as distinct from a portal out of Yesod.  [Severian later ruminates on whether the White Fountain may be a similar portal, or even the same one.]
