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.

"a huge friend with dripping jaws that spoke to me" (if I have it right
after looking it up last night)--not so scary.  It's right after Severian
meets Triskele.

Where's the green mankiller?  (If looking it up is any trouble, don't
bother.  I can take the trouble myself.)
