Gene Wolfe and Pringles

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.

Important trivia for SF fans.

Perhaps it's old news to others, but it's new news to me.   -Eric

One of the designers of the machine used to mold Pringles was the
