Thank you -- and it's no problem as you get 2 months from the date of claim, even without asking for more time 8-)

notes for section 2:

at 13:36 there's a repeat on "saying" -- "out to the sailors, saying, saying, "Weigh anchor and set sail!" "

at ~ 16:00, a stumble/repeat on "that she might be vouchsafed patience"

another repeat at 17:59 "had put a cheat on him" is there twice.

there is some pretty consistent sibilance and whistling sounds on several of the S sounds in this recording. I'm not sure if it's that bad or not, but since there are some other edits, it might be worth looking into cleaning that up if it's possible. BC or MC can chime in on this too, perhaps! I'm never sure if I'm being too sensitive to stuff like this.

Will, you have a gorgeous movie-star voice. I should go find more of your readings to PL, if there are any.

section 3 is PL okay, though the same sibilance and whistling stands out on most of the S sounds in this section too. it could be my speakers, maybe?
does either Lynne or Kristin have any advice on whether that kind of thing is worth marking in this case?

Has anyone PM'd willthompson2 about the edits needed? That's all that's holding up this project now.

As for the sibilance, that is not something we generally ask to have corrected. However, we can suggest changing mic placement for future recordings 8-)

I talked with them over PM in may, but I'll remind them again, as they said they would get it in a week.

Hi, you have to rename the file and upload it again. The ## is supposed to be the section number, which means it should be 02 in your file.
