silk, the dancing toy, and gods in the tunnels

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.

"By now everyone know I actually think Wolfe creates symbols and "metaphors" that are actually extremely literal.? Thus, Shadow Children riding Marshmen is the same as Shadow Children riding a man named Marsch (his name is misspelled in my copy as Marsh in the title "A Story by John V Marsh", which I feel might be intentional even if changed in later editions by copy editors)."
?
on the other hand, as everyone KNOWS, sometimes typos are just?typos.
