Five Dog Knight, aka Casting Couch

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.

Alas not, so he'd better be Malrubius :-)

That reminds me, I missed out two from my anti-list

Malrubius:  Leslie Nielsen
Triskele:   ALF

Well, more sort of `knightly' rather than `aristocratic'.  If Larry were
still around, he could do a cameo of the Pancreator, say.  Maybe you could
hire a stately home for the House Absolute.  Chatsworth would do.
