Out of the office (was Re: Digest from urth@urth.net)

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.

hartshorn,

Yes, they (discussions, not discussers, necessarily--it remains to
be seen)
are this loony. Help us back to some semblance of sanity.

Considering when EXODUS FROM THE LONG SUN was being
written (1994-5), Councillor Newt has a pretty obvious
real-life referent: Newt Gingrich, elected Speaker of
the US House of Representatives after the unexpected
Republican congressional election victories of
November 1994. From what we see of Newt, the
resemblance is pretty profound...
