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.

Lasrach,

Re: the alien vampire critters, as we are told there is a "hooded"
variety (cobra-like) there is also the suggestion that there are
other types--at least one un-hooded.  These types may or may not be
related.  So, as you say, the term "inhumu" might be as categorical as
cacogen.

(Re: Crowley, do you rank ENGINE SUMMER over LITTLE, BIG or was that
list unranked?  The completist in me wants to write that you left
out: THE DEEP and BEASTS and THE GREAT WORK OF TIME and ANTIQUITIES
[and "Gone" in F&SF Sep. 1996]; but maybe you don't consider these
among his best work. <g>)
