dual list discussion

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.

Actually this isn't a bad idea a-tall: One list for Wolfe discussion
and one for other "Lupine" writers. Except, of course, that the second
list quickly becomes a combination general literary discussion and
argument about "what is Lupine," so its value might fall into
question fairly quickly. Or maybe not. I like the idea if it could
be handled well.

H'mmmm. How about this: One main list, one to which we _move_=20
discussions when they wander off the immediately Lupine? And what to=20
call such lists?

"Wolfe" and "Dogge"?=20

"Lupine" and "Quasilupine?"

"Whorl" and "Swirl?"

"Urth" and "Sky"?

"Fred" and "Ethel"?

"Wolfetrain" and "Sidecar"?
