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.

Ok, Roy, I think I got it now. Your contention is that Silk was so clueless
that he wasn't aware that prosthetics were available even though there was a
sibyl (just across the courtyard) who was about half artificial. Horn was
equally clueless.

Also, within the same space of time since Kennedy was shot, the craftsmen
who used to build bio-prosthetics (specially designed to look old) and chem
replacement parts all died out without training any prot=C3=A9g=C3=A9s.

Finally, Hammerstone was never curious enough to enquire where his fianc=C3=
=A9
was employed (because if he knew what she was doing at *any* time he would
know if she was not constantly employed at the cenoby).

I don't see a way to bridge the gap between us --- which is a shame, because
I think the "old hands" references you've pointed out bears investigation,
but you and I seem to be the only people interested.
