NORTH/SOUTH

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.

Jim, can you give some support for the assertion that Ultan is Borges?
Haven't read the passage in some time, but Im a big Borges fan (it was
Wolfe's resemblence to Borges that got me interested in TBOTNS) and would
love to see the connection.
