Some Scattered Thoughts: some short, one very long.

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.

More to the point, the Mainframe gods can affect the vision centers=20
only through the eyes -- Pig, without eyes, cannot upload his Silk to
Mainframe. Mucor, walking about as a loose soul/spirit, can appear=20
directly to Pig, probably to his soul/spirit (though I suppose a case
could be made that she is "stimulating his vision centers"). At any
rate, the manner in which she appears to Pig is clearly of a different
order from the way in which Mainframe gods manifest.
