mantis on TBOTSS and fanfic

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.

It's one of history's great lost opportunities that the inventor
of this phrase didn't use one of the other names for the oblique
character, "stroke".

What are the relations, if any, among www.sirius.com, www.siriusfiction.com,
www.siriusbooks.com (whose web site shows only a CGI directory, inaccessibl=

www.sirius-books.com, and the Sirius Book Company who published some of Kei=
