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.

Now alga, granted you don't like PEACE, nor FREE LIVE FREE, nor THERE ARE
DOORS, nor PANDORA, nor CASTLEVIEW.  But for the purposes of our
calibrating your tastes, where does such a modern tale as "Forlesen" fall?
Do you dislike it as much?  Or is it below the radar (i.e., completely
forgotten)?

And how about "The Island of Doctor Death and Other Stories"?  "Beech
Hill"?  I mean, I can guess that you dislike "The Woman Who Loved the
Centaur Pholus," but  these other ones I don't know.
