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.

Hey, alga and Talon (and anybody else who might have been tracking
this curious bit of clothing accessory)!

You will =3Dnever=3D guess where I just stumbled upon a woman's scarf,
peach colored and scented!  (Is this the same one that Silk finds
after his convolesence in that fellow's room?)

No, you will never guess . . .

Here's a hint . . .

It is in THE BOOK OF THE NEW SUN.

Okay, here . . .

It is in THE CLAW OF THE CONCILIATOR.

Wait!  You think I'm making this up!

All right then, it is in the antechamber.

Check it out!
