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 unique, intelligent young man, whose life we have for a little while lived, has ceased to exist. Worse still, he has become the thing he hates. Loss of the Self is, perhaps, the ultimate horror. -- Tony Ellis On-line Editor, PC Format magazine 01225 442244 x2349 http://www.pcformat.co.uk *More Wolfe info & archive of this list at http://www.urth.net/urth/
