Quick question: Am I to read the references to figures or diagrams as they appear in the main text?

For example on the bottom of page 17 to the top of page 18: "The movement will be understood more clearly on an inspection of the diagrams a and b (Fig. 6), a representing an end view of the two portions of the pack in their original position..."

Or am I to skip over references like these?

Go ahead and read them. They're short enough, and if someone is following along with the text or wants to look at the diagrams, the reference will help them.

Here is Section 05.

Oh! I didn't reference the diagrams. Let me know if you want that done.

Thanks! We'll see if upon PL, the references are missed.

Section 5 will be great as soon as we make one little cut.

I think it sounds good without the figure references. If someone is going to have the text in front of them they will also be able to notice the references. If someone is just going to listen the references would detract.

With that in mind, may we please remove at 12:30 - 12:32 “(the king of diamonds in the figure) to” on page 46 --the word “to” was accidentaly added before the word “two” … or maybe it was “two two” <shrug>

Section 6 PL OK

Just to let everyone know - I'm going to be off the computer a couple days. I should be back Saturday.

If it's all right with you, I will read Sections 7 thru 13.
