@Anne: Thank you very much, Anne! BCing my first project is a bit like my first Veena recital in front of a humongous audience, you know... I'm nervous and wonderfully excited! http://www.anchoredbygrace.com/smileys/bouncy.gif The changes you've made are perfectly fine. Thanks! And you'll find that ...

Thank you kindly, Ms Nagarajan!!!
I'm gonna need help on the Google Doc thingy, though... You know me.

Yay! The first ever project I'll be BCing.... Just a few clarifications (in other words: Help?!) : I've used the Wikisource file, because it would make it a lot easier for all of us to segregate the sections. The Gutenberg file just seems to run on, and on- with no way to separate one poem from anot...

Thank you both so much, Barry and Joy! :D @Joy: I'm really glad you enjoyed this, Mommy3C, because (although I really WAS horrified by the stuff Hiokatoo and Allan did, and what's worse: it really happened, didn't it?) I actually did enjoy reading it myself! And I'm sorry about the barking; my dog h...

Here're the re-uploads of chapter 8 (duration: 22:28) http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/lc/lifeofmaryjemison_08_seaver.mp3 ...and of chapter 11 (duration: 26:01) http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/lc/lifeofmaryjemison_11_seaver.mp3 Barry, I've edited out the bits you told me to ( :oops:...

I never keep my bloopers... But I do remember this excruciatingly embarrassing moment I had in the 9th grade, when I read out "six letters" as "sex litters". Talk about a major "oops" moment! :oops: Would have made Freud's day, had he been in that classroom then! :wink:

Never mind, sweetie! We'll keep our eyes open for 2121!

:D Thanks a ton, Joy. You're sweet! Here's chapter 8... (There was a power cut last night, in the middle of the upload. Sometimes, I just can't seem to catch a break! :| But I'm glad this is the last of it. I wouldn't want to be in Mary Jemison's shoes any longer than I have to be. ) http://upload.l...

Oh, YAY! More birthdays!

Have yourself a splendid birthday, AmOz!!!

Here's chapter 11. I hope I've covered all the changes that were made!

ETA: Uploading chapter 8... Sheesh! It's taking it's own sweet time!

Alright, then. Thanks, Kristine. I'll leave 'em out.

Footnotes are optional, but if you do decide to read them I'd think at the end of the canto would be best.
