Quincas Borba

The reading sounded good, but the volume is out of range at 95.4 dB. Please reduce by about 5 dB. https://sites.google.com/site/librivideo/for-volunteers/recording#6
The recording is in stereo and needs to be in mono. https://sites.google.com/site/librivideo/for-volunteers/recording#8
