Sue, I know you like to look up stuff that's submitted here, in this case the (more interesting) keyword is "freak waves"

Hi Availle, Thanks for this interesting piece! You and I must currently be attuned on some kind of "wave-length," as I was doing a bit of looking, these last few days, at the paintings of John Singer Sargent, and I had a very visceral reaction to his depiction of gigantic storm waves, which he experienced first hand crossing the Atlantic in 1876: https://uploads1.wikiart.org/images/john-singer-sargent/atlantic-storm-1876.jpg.

I did check out "freak waves." Well worth a look.
Regards,

Hello Kalamareader, Welcome to the Nonfiction Collection, and thank you for contributing to volume 62! It's always nice when there are "companion" pieces in a collection, such as you mention about the American flag. I think it attracts the attention of listeners.

Our dedicated proof listener (DPL), Soupy (Craig) will proof listen your recording. I listened to the first few minutes just now, and you have a clear recording voice!

Thanks, Craig! Your reading is PL OK!

From Condorcet: "Either no individual of the human species has any true rights, or all have the same; and he or she who votes against the rights of another, whatever may be his or her religion, colour, or sex, has by that fact abjured his own."

[soupy]

Thanks Sue.

Thanks for the portal of the unknown Dale

a few errors noted.

2:27 I saw them discontinue their appropriate galvanic functions – you read disconnect

3:15 The head became intensely brilliant – you read bright

4:45 and unchangeably organized – you read undischaringly

7:31 - was wholly disengaged from the tenacious physical body – you read tenuous

10:19 It being in a summer month – repetition

11:23 They walked so naturally and fraternally together that I could scarcely realize the fact that they trod the air – you read recognize

At the end - This account of the facts—of what actually happened at death—is confirmed by numerous other witnesses, who agree as to the main details. – this should be read

HI:
Thank you Craig. I am glad someone else is checking. I chose this piece because of the obscure languaging. And thank you for catching the last sentence. It is important to the work.

I have reloaded Portal

All the other information is the same.

Thanks again
