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 was thinking these exact same thoughts, Gerry.


I'll guess that Wolfe might also put Michael Andre-Driussi on his "mostly gets it"

list. As "Mantis" he contributed quite a bit of speculation and analysis to the early

days of this list,  but in his published work he has leaned away from going out on a 

limb and more toward just cataloging Lupine information.


(I was quite convinced by one Andre-Driussi essay refuting a Borski theory and 

proposing that Hethor's mirrors are (Tzadkiel's) Ship sail scraps. I was less swayed by

another he wrote about bear and cat figures in BotNS)
