The Best Introduction to the Mountains

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 Thoreau bit (which I rather liked) was also quoted in "Death of the
Island Doctor," iirc.  I hadn't known it was by Thoreau, though.
