Shadowy reflections on an amazing article

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.

Wow.  So you might be in the market for a (U.S.S.) Monitor as the Minotaur,=
 eh?

Fantastic worlds await you!

(Gee, this is like making balloon animals as party favors--actually I wish
I could make balloon animals this easily.  That would be a useful skill!)

Ahem.  On another tangent, gushing about "A Solar Labyrinth" must be
tempered by noting the very creepy ending.  Or so it seems to me.
