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.

Mantis should be interested in this:

I put this up on my Wolfe News Blog too, but I thought I'd mention it
here. The hierodules are the aliens in the New Sun series, but I also
discovered that "hierodula" is the latin genus name for the praying
mantis. The hierodules are described as having compound eyes and big
mandibles when they get unmasked.

Interesting conection hm?

Paul
