The Land Across Discussion (Spoilers!)

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.

I haven't read this yet, but just as a note, the way gmail is set up by
default (and possibly other mail clients) you see the first lines of
message text after the subject in your inbox view.  So putting "spoiler" in
the subject heading isn't very effective if it's followed immediately by
"Who cut off Butch's head"!

I have no idea whether Butch is a main character or a red shirt, or whether
this is a particularly suspenseful plot point; just a note, since a goodly
number of urthlings seem to be using gmail, if this thread is any
indication.
