Low	This article has been rated as Low-importance on the project's importance scale.

The page is primarily a synopsis. Having just read the original story because I was going to refer to it in a non-wikipedia article, the synopsis seems correct, so I have removed the "unreviewed" template. Matruman (talk) 22:31, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect ending or revisions in republishing?[edit]

I remember reading this story years ago in an anthology, however the ending was different: instead of the governor's pardon being late due to a routing error, it was rejected (with a curt warning for failure to follow proper procedure) by the automated system for not also including the required signature of the pardoning official's (i.e. the governor's) immediate supervisor.

Does anyone know if this was a known publishing variant, or is the synopsis in this article simply incorrect? John Darrow (talk) 00:26, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I now see that it was the subsequent routing failure notice, not the pardon itself, that included the warning regarding requiring the supervisor's signature. Mea culpa. John Darrow (talk) 00:37, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
