Thank you! There are just two quick changes to make and then you'll be all set:

- At 16:22, "save that in some places," you say "save in that some places" (p. 27)
- At the very end, the last word "achieved" has been cut off (p. 40)
Here's Section 1 (45:22) again with those things fixed--thanks for your patience and help! :D

PL OK! You're welcome, and thank you for your patience with my notes! :D
For the time being, I'll need a little more time than usual to PL sections that come in on weekdays. Thanks for your patience.

Rosie, thank you for section 2! I wanted to let you know that it will probably be tomorrow before I can give it a listen, but I'll PL it as soon as I can.

Thanks again for this section! It sounds great, as always. I have just two notes:

- At 12:13, "so harasses us that," you say, "so harness us that" (p. 45, footnote).
- I'm seeing in Checker that the bit rate is variable and is 113 kbps instead of 128. If you could re-configure your Audacity settings and then import the file and export it again, that should fix it.

It's all yours. Thank you for claiming! That makes this project fully subscribed!

https://librivox.org/uploads/knotyouraveragejo/moralityofmarriage_09_caird_128kb.mp3
Thank you for section 9! Great job, as always. I have just a few notes:

- At 5:51, "Its rules are idiots' rambling," I hear "It rules are idiots' rambling" (p. 140)
- At 6:58, "the expected perquisite of husbands," I hear "the expected prerequisite of husbands" (p. 140)
- At 21:34, could you include the footnote identifying the source of the quote? Usually I'm not concerned about citations, but I think that here, since the novel was referenced in the main text, it will be helpful to include the title (p. 146)
For the time being, I'll need a little more time than usual to PL sections that come in on weekdays. Thanks for your patience.

I was debating whether to mention that citation because I did not want to say the author's name again. A cowardly act!

PL OK! Thank you! And not cowardly - I'm not sure where Caird (or her editor) got that spelling, but I usually see it as Chernyshevsky, which is somewhat less intimidating. (I happen to be re-reading What Is to Be Done? at the moment.)
For the time being, I'll need a little more time than usual to PL sections that come in on weekdays. Thanks for your patience.

Thank you for section 16! It sounds great, and I appreciate your deliberate and easy to follow pace. I have some notes, but please don't be discouraged by them! :) This is a long recording, so it's not as much as it may look like.

- At the very beginning, could you trim out the silence so that there's 0.5-1 second of silence?
- At 1:21, "omnipotent in this world," you say "omni-impotent in this world" (p. 231)
- At 2:20, could you include the footnote at "And Nature"? (p. 231)
- At 4:30, "seek to evade it," I hear "seek to invade it" (p. 231)
- At 4:36, "if he wishes to avoid degeneration," I hear "if he wishes to invoid degeneration" (p. 231)
- At 7:17, "and enfeebles the race," I hear "and enfeeds the race" (p. 233)
- At 8:54, "enervated by the centuries of obedience," you say "inadverted by the centuries of obedience" (p. 233)
- At 9:09, "adding in some sort to the creation, as an artist adds to it," you say "aiding in some sort to the creation, as an artist aids to it" (p. 233)
- At 9:17, "out of inchoate material," I hear "out of inoculate material" (p. 233)
- At 13:51, "to insist on the extirpation," you say "to insist on the extrapulation" (p. 235)
- At 15:17, "the secret of half the pain of life," you say "the secret half of the pain of life" (p. 235)
- At 15:20, there are two pages missing from the Internet Archive scan that I linked (p. 236-237). Sorry I missed that! Would you mind reading those two pages from this scan? (I chose the first scan because I thought the contrast was better...oh well! :lol: )
- At 15:21, "conditions clash so perilously," I hear "conditions class so periously" (p. 238)
- At 15:57, there's a repeat of "in consequence of the more highly organised life..." (p. 238)
- At 16:22, "the conditions of our present state," the end of "conditions" is cut off (p. 238)
- At 17:21, "It is the perennial mistake," I hear "It is the pre-annual mistake" (p. 238)
- At 17:57, "The idea of the tribe," I hear "The ideal of the tribe" (p. 238)
- At 18:16, "desire to propitiate," I hear "desire to appropriate" (p. 238)
- At 21:08, "thus plying the immortal business of the Fates," you say "thus playing the immortal business of the Fates" (p. 239)
- At the end, could you trim the silence to about 5 seconds of silence?
- The volume is at 93 dB. Would you mind lowering it to within the target range of 87-92 dB?
- Could you change the filename to moralityofmarriage_16_caird_128kb?

By the way, while editing, if you start at the end and work backwards, it will make the process easier because it will keep the timestamps that you haven't gotten to yet in the same place.

If you have questions about anything, I'll be happy to help! :)

As for section 7, no apology needed! I know real life stuff happens sometimes. As long as I know it's on the way, it's all good.
For the time being, I'll need a little more time than usual to PL sections that come in on weekdays. Thanks for your patience.
