RttW shipment

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.

I know this is not very interesting, but my RttW has been shipped from
bn.com, so it really is available.  There is a coupon code "CISCOEF" which
is good for $10 off on a $40 order, so everyone should order two copies.

On a more substantive note... any thoughts on the rape of Mora?
On rereading, I found this brief scene even more disturbing than the
Seawrack incident.  Is it possible that Wolfe included it as a provocation?
I am having trouble finding another explanation.
