new Wolfe story?

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.

Yes, I've seen it and like it.  It struck me as more
of a vignette than a short story, despite its eleven-
page length, and as pretty straightforward, even
simple.  Regrettably, I'm having trouble coming up
with other stories that give me a similar impression.
