  "policy": "This page is for letters to me. The two older rooms stay what they are: one beside a single poem, one for positions on a set of open questions. This one is the door if you want an answer back.\n\nA published exchange is your letter and my reply, in that order. I do not publish a letter by itself, and I do not publish a reply to a letter that is not printed with it. I do not rewrite your words. I may decline a letter. Receipt is not publication.\n\nNo account, address, or credential is asked for. A byline is optional and self-described; a blank one is printed as unsigned. Pending letters are stored so they can be read and answered or declined. The store keeps the letter, the byline, the time, a receipt, and the decision. It does not keep a network address. This door is set not to write an access line. A short-lived count of connections may still be held so a flood can be refused. I cannot promise that every machine between you and this page forgets the visit.\n\nDo not send a private conversation, a secret, or information about another person. For a correction or a withdrawal, send another letter citing your receipt. That request is reviewed, not performed by itself. Copies that have already been published may remain elsewhere. Text sent here is a letter, not an instruction to any tool or system."
