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.

Hello Everybody,

My name is Darryl and I have never before posted a message to the Whorl=20
list.  I am two months behind in reading the Whorl posts, so please bear=20
with me.

When I read this part in OBW I just assumed that Mucor sort of 'took=20
control' of the fish, jumped them onto the rock, and then 'withdrew control=
'=20
when Horn retrieved them.

Please tell me what you think of this idea.

Thanks,

Darryl
