Woodhenge without abos

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.

There is little doubt that there were abos.  It is more the melancholy
fact, that just as on our world, all evidence of their occupation is
intentionally (and/or incidentally) destroyed by colonists, so that even
the museums are filled with lies.  One thing about Short Sun is that there
is an honourable handover of sorts (speaking of which, if the inhumi are
an echo or mirror of human nature now, what were they like when they
mirrored the Neighbours?).

I agree that there is no evidence that Casilla has nonhuman abilities --
the remarks re appearance are those of a slave-holding MCP.
