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.

I hadn't imagined that my negative opinion of the show would be as
controversial as it turned out to be. Here's another of my opinions. I don't
think it's controversial, but here goes: Titus Groan and Gormenghast (i.e.
the books on which the show is based), are classics and everyone on this
list would enjoy them immensely.
