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.

Talking about Dunsany reminded me of the fate of one of the characters in
_The curse of the wise woman_, who may get the choice (he chooses the
downward path) of dying and going to heaven, or instead going to
Tir'nan'ogh.  I think some Irish beliefs offer Heaven/Hell or just fading
away here. =20
