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.

Silk's Suicide.  On re-reading and reviewing mantis' comments I see where
more clearly where the suicide theory comes from.  On first hearing this, it
seemed so out of character for Silk, but then Silk running off madly after
Hyacinth and abandoning the landing party seemed so "out of character" too.
I guess if he had bad enough for Hy to abandon the mission the Outsider gave
him, then suicide in grief at her passing is reasonable too.

I know I'm going on about this but I think his running off after Hy and not
going to Blue was more of a shock to me than Queztal <sp?> being revealed as
an inhumus.
