PEACE: geography and interviews

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.

The other difficulty with using Wolfe's interviews is that, while they
are useful in a general way, Wolfe is, I think, intentionally gnomic
and tricky.  Recall the answers to the question list for LONG SUN, and
the fact that THE CASTLE OF THE OTTER did suprisingly little to clear
up some things about NEW SUN (it gave two different explanations of
where the idea came from, for Pete's sake).
