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.

Rich Horton,

Ah yes, the Kalevala.  I was thinking of Emil Petaja's sf version.
No doubt there are others--has Ian Watson written one?

Alastair,

Hello and welcome aboard!

Re: whorl/Cerberus, while it hasn't been done to death, I think we
have gotten ourselves a little dizzy on it (chasing our tails).  The
good news is we've just put the question to Gene Wolfe himself, so we
don't have to think too much about it for a few weeks--until the
answer comes.  (Then we can argue about that! <g>)
