BTW: Here is the Checker report. I don't see anything for background noise and I seem to remember a thread where people were discussing the version of Checker and what info it provided. I came to the conclusion that not all work the same and no one seemed to be able to figure out how to get the vers...

Good input.... thanks Rosebud and Ann. In this case, I think we can omit the footnotes without losing anything in the story.

I do run it through checker. I'm not sure I look for anything other than length and volume (Ch. 2 is 89.1). Anything more I need to look at? Re: the footnotes.

Probably my IT background helped a bit, though the instructions are pretty clear.... Might as well ask my next question: When I am ready to upload a reading, do I do it the "classic" way? Upload and post info in the thread, or am I supposed to update the MW directly. If the latter, is ther...

Ok -- I am in the MW. ..... also went ahead and entered the chapters and assigned myself.

Soloist: Anita (Anitazz) DPL: Rosebud Kevin/Ann/Rosebud: I think this is right. I didn't know how to answer the question on whether there was a separate file for the forward. I answered "no", but a forward is being included and will be it's own section. Please let me know if I need to make...
