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 think that Wolfe disapproves of the revolution there, though he doesn't
like the corporate forces of order either (but I'd have to read it again to
be sure).

I looked at a copy at a bookstore, and they weren't, or at least there's no
indication that they were.
