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.

For that matter, just read anything by M John Harrison. He's one of the
best, and the least recognised, writers in Britain.

Cat lovers might want to start with the Wild Road series, written with
his ex under the joint nom-de-plume Gabriel King. :-)
