Is it ok to delete section 64-67 now?
Fine with me, I guess. However you want to handle it.

Hey,
Thank you for the feedback!
I checked it out, the problem seems to be my input port. I seem to have damaged it, hence the trouble.
If it's okay I would like to orphan my pieces, the repairs will take sometime.
Ah, yes. that would explain it. :(
Okay, I'll free up these sections, but look forward to your joining us again soon on another project!

All the best,

Thank you
Again, sorry for the trouble .
I look forward to it too :) !

0:02 Missing words - please add the subtitle ("A Tale of Nonsense Land") after the title ("The Princess's Fingernail")
Volume of recording too low @ 86.3 dB (87-91 dB acceptable) - To amplify in Audacity, select the whole recording. Click Effect > Amplify. In the Amplification box, enter the number 3. Verify that the file is around 89 dB using Checker.

Section 58 PL notes:
Too much silence at end of file - 5 seconds will suffice (there are currently over 6 seconds)

Section 59 PL notes:
0:30 "Draught" is generally pronounced "draft." Usually I don't comment on pronunciation but your specific pronunciation significantly changes the meaning. You pronounced "draught" like "drought" (a prolonged period of abnormally low rainfall, leading to a shortage of water) instead of "draft" (the act of drinking, which is what is implied by the line - "the beaded draught we lightly quaffed").

PL OK: 3, 4, 6, 7, 14, 17, 21, 26, 31, 32, 37, 51

Well my goodness! You all don't have to make my job THIS easy! Nice job!

Section 47 - A Plea

I think your current President might agree with the sentiments expressed in this poem. Interesting that people were complaining about the same thing a century ago. :hmm:

Larry, old chap: I'm a bit ahead of approval but I was inspired and then perspired to do the three poems I had requested just a bit ago. Here is Section 08, all 02mm11ss of it: https://librivox.org/uploads/linny/salvator_08_wilcox_128kb.mp3

Thank you!

I think we'll have a couple of open sections, however.
On holiday in the mountains for a few more days with erratic internet, so will update soon.

cadastra,
Please make sure to post in the thread whenever you PL, even when it's PL OK. It's the only way we can ensure that a section wasn't accidentally toggled to PL OK.
