Yes, this section is funny. Excellent job on the Scottish accent and there are few errors. There is that bothersome business about the word reminiscences, which is spelled differently at one point in the instructions. But for the intro, it should be reminiscences, not reminisces. They need to be fixed at 3.0 and 20.0. And the only other thing is that after footnote 9 ends, you forgot to say "close footnote." Yours, Jim

Thank you! All is well with 3, which now is in the MW with a PL OK. And just two more and we will be done!

Jim, I've had a couple of unexpected events crowd into my schedule, but I hope to have the other two sections completed this weekend. Be of good cheer.

He has some very interesting stories in this. This was a bit longer project than I thought, and a technological challenge, but well worth the time put in.

Kerry, Chapter 4 is quite an achievement: so long and yet so correct. It is, in other words, PL OK! first go!

And I enjoyed it, though I thought the Sabbath business went on a bit too long. But that was not your fault. Have a good day! Jim
