Hi Judith, Nice job ~ it is PL OK! Just a couple of little notes for the future. I changed the file naming scheme to take off the s.j. part of the name ~ I should have done that when I set it up, but missed it. So it should be meaningoflife_00_goodier_128kb .. Don't worry about this file, I will fi...

HI Judith, No, please don't make a new recording! You just need to take the recording you already submitted and edit out the mistakes that I listed.
