Seawrack and the Mother

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.

? If her arm has been torn off, it has been torn off. Torn off. Not shot. 
Torn off. You might as well posit that she didn't lose her arm at all and 
it's all in the narrator's head.
That's of course not entering all the other bits (what would an aquatic 
creature like Seawrack doing in a boat, etc).
