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.

Somewhere in storage I have an anthology of rare psychedelic rock from the
60s which includes a track by a group called, iirc, Steerpike, which
released a concept album whose concept was that Steerpike was the true hero
of the Gormenghast books.  I have no recollection whatever of what the track
sounded like.
