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.

alga,

You're thinking of the right person; his series is titled=20
His Dark Materials, and comprises three volumes:
_The Golden Compass_; _The Subtle Knife_; and=20
_The Amber Spyglass_.

It's been strongly recommended to me by my book-
seller and by other friends, though not with the  . . .=20
fervor . . . that Harry Potter seems to engender.
