Time, Not Cloning

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.

>Yes. My assumption has always been that this unstable matter comes from Yesod, i.e., a "higher" universe, since the Otherworld/Land of the Dead is where ghosts and such come from, and since Yesod obviously controls it this matter. But a ghost could come from anywhere if the gods will it.
