Yaaaay! Thank you very much MHM. If the past is prolog to the future, I'll bet that this is going to be a superb recitation. Will PL very soon.

I was right! You've submitted a very high quality recitation for this section!
Thank you very, very much.
Thus endeth Helmholtz's discussion of painting.
Still another PL OK for your efforts. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Uploaded Section 17

26:44

The original assignment of this section has expired. I recorded the text just in case the original assignee was not able to record the file in proper time.

Michele, would you be kind enough to PL this file for me??

Triciag, I'll fill in the file timings tomorrow

As soon as the final PL is done, and the timing notes are inserted, this project will finally be completed.

Status check, please. :)

Owlivia
In doing my end-of-project reviews, I just now noticed that you've UPLOADED the Helmholtz section 15 into maryannspiegel's directory instead of triciag's.

Please re-upload your file with the proper MC specified.
The content is, again, excellent, PLOK. I just want to guarantee that it ends up in triciag's directory.
Thank youl

I have limited time and won't be able to catalog this until next week. So there's not a huge rush on my end. :)

Thanks for the Heads Up!
That might make it easier for Michele to say "OK" about PLing it.

Sure I will PL this, and try to claim the cover once it catalogues if you wish.

Sure, I'd love for you to create one of your special covers for this Helmholtz project!

17 is PL OK. Congratulations on a job well done. I have enjoyed learning about Helmholtz. :thumbs:

Before cataloguing, you might want to review your summary, which has what looks like some NOTES to readers in it that might not belong in the final product.

Cheers!

Tricia, in re Section 15:
I'm getting no response from Owlivia about her re-uploading her file to YOU instead of maryannspiegel.

By any chance can you copy over Owlivia's file into the correct directory??

Yes, that's perfectly fine. As long as the file downloads from the MW, I can catalogue it.

Busy day today after an 18-hour road trip yesterday. I'll get to this when I can!

This project could have been done 2 months ago -- but it wasn't. The good and conscientious narrators have done a splendid job - both Speed-wise and Quality-wise. It's too late to pat ourselves on our backs for being swift with the completion, so, I'll be content with the cataloging being done whenever it fits into your schedule.

Note that Owlivia (one of the really good ones!) has already re-uploaded her section into your directory.

Thanks for everything.
