Typhon vs. Pas

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.

>>>I agree that Typhon in BotNS seems far harsher than Pas, and I
wonder whether Typhon improved the copy of himself.

I've just got online with the urthnet so please forgive my comments if
they've been outrageously dismissed!

I've been taking a look at this thread recently and having recently re-read
BotLS I had a thought on this...
There have been some ideas put forward w/regards to Pas being more
benevolent than his two headed counterpart... I've been wondering whether
his thoughts at the time, and I think all of us have noble thoughts
interspersed with our less admirable ones, may have contributed to this more
user-friendly Pas. i.e. When he was scanned into mainframe his thoughts were
on a particularly high spirited tilt... any thoughts?
