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.

Dave,

My apologies if the text originated with you.  (Still, algae should
have caught it rather than being caught up with it! <g> <And you were,
Jahi, admit it!> <g>)

See (I, ch. 9, 217); (II, ch. 1, 29).

Please note, all Quetzalghostpikers: I am not questioning "Quetzal is
the dark thing flying from the room at the beginning of the episode"
(see III, 20); I am questioning the double-dipping required to have
Quetzal also be the ghost of Pike, as well as how such a charade could
possibly help Quetzal or his goals.

Talon,

Glad to help out.
Father =3D Ouen (the waiter at the Inn of Lost Loves)
Mother =3D Catherine (definitely a monial who left the Pelerines, probably =
an
exultant, possibly related to Thecla)
Paternal grandmother =3D Dorcas ("Oedipus, meet Lolita")
Paternal grandfather =3D the boatman on the Lake of Birds (essentially
"Charonus")

algae,

Nice to see you coming out and agreeing with the Orchid/Mucor
thing--now I'll try to sabotage it for you! <g> But in the meantime,
don't forget your mini-lecture on how the Lake is not a Window!

(Then again, you do make such an Artful Dodger!)
