Key to the Universe

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 are those among us here, mostly epopts of the BotNS, who use the 1994
Orb two-volume reissue. Can you provide the paragraph numbers of those of
which you are speaking?
