Hello & Welcome

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.

Open the Floodgates of Urth!

As I mentioned somewhere else, "Additions, Errata, &cetera:
volume III" is taking shape in the magic mirror.

There's a paperback chapter page citation key which should come
in handy for some.

Terraforming notes re: Mars/Verthandi, Venus/Skuld, Luna/Lune,
and stellar engineering re: Old Sun (as in real engineering answers
to "why insert a black hole into a perfectly good star?") and New Sun
(as in real engineering answers to . . . well, you get the idea).

Something about the early neutrino count from the sun . . . still
researching this one.  Feel free to help if you know anything.

An entry on Kardashev Levels of civilization.

An entry on various Apollos.

And more things of that sort.
