Marsch an assassin?

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.

Of course, I was only saying the two planets share similar features, so similar gravity is not beyond the realm of thematic possibility.  Also equally likely thematically is that Marsch himself be misidentified as an assassin by a suspicious government (I think only objective identifications free of personal attachment are possible in much of Wolfe, and this is why number 5 can look at VRT and say abo and VRT can look at number five and say clone.  Perhaps the government is not objective)
