Sorcerer's House writeup done at last.

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.

"Guess what never appears in the text of the novel?  I'm reminded of Umberto Eco's _Foucault's Pendulum_
which goes through alchemy, the Knights Templar, Kabbalism to Rosicrucianism, never once mentioning the Tarot 
[is it a review by Clute that points this out?]. 

Cheers, David Duffy.
