Hi everyone,

Just a reminder to post recordings and what not (:
Even if you haven't recorded, please do just check in and confirm that you're still alive!
I dearly miss you all, it's awfully lonely in this BC office...

The thought of you sitting in the lonely BC office watching dust gather on the computer is just too sad. Suppose I liven things up a bit by claiming sections 20 and 29?

You know my life too well ):
The dust was even starting to gather on the computer screen!

Noted, sections 20 and 29

Sorry for the long delay. December got a bit crazy and I had to let LV go onto a back burner. But I'm back! Section 29 is recorded and will follow as soon as I get it edited.

Hi Maria,
Glad to have you back! Section 20 is PL OK!

Here's Section 29 - (length 22:55)
https://librivox.org/uploads/annise/geneva_conventions_1949_29_icrc_128kb.mp3

There appeared to be some obvious typographical errors in the text, where the marginal "titles" were listed in the wrong places for Articles 144, 145, 146, and 147. Which title went with which article was clearly mixed up. Article 144 discussed "disseminating the text of the convention as widely as possible", but the marginal gloss was called "II: Grave Breaches", and should have gone with Article 147, which was a list of circumstances constituting grave breaches, while Article 144's title "Dissemination of the Convention" was attached to Article 145, which was actually about Translations, Etc...

I took the liberty of correcting the mixup in my reading. I hope this falls within the acceptable area of "correcting obvious typos", and is allowable. But if you would prefer the titles to be read as written, (even though utterly confusing that way!), I'll do a cut/paste to put them back in that order.

Hi Maria,
Section 29 is PL ok as it is but let's wait to hear from Toeknee on if your modifications are ok.
