Here are your notes:

6:23: 'arboreal' in "This is that they form the only group of strictly arboreal animals" is pronounced 'ahr-BAWR-ee-uhl', not 'AHR-buh-ruhl'.

7:05: 'arboreal' in "is specially adapted in organization to an arboreal residence"

9:48: 'arboreal' in "The squirrels, the opossums, and other arboreal animals"

11:25-11:45: Repetition of "In the latter ... arboreal life completed".

11:42: 'arboreal' in "and adaptation to arboreal life completed"

11:47: 'arboreal' in "they both possess the opposable thumb as the hall-mark of their arboreal habitat"

19:26: 'arboreal' in "all the existing large apes are arboreal"

19:45: 'arboreal' in "The organization of man renders it questionable if his primeval ancestor was arboreal to any similar extent."

20:46: 'arboreal' in "Yet it is doubtful if the man-ape long remained a specially arboreal animal"

21:09: 'arboreal' in "If we could see this ancient creature in its arboreal home"

23:18: The ending silence is too long. You should be aiming for 5 seconds, and you've got almost 6.8 seconds.

Well, at least I was consistent.

I'll get it corrected. Thanks.

Here's revised Chapter Four: https://librivox.org/uploads/craigdav1/manandhisancestor_04_morris_128kb.mp3

23:14

I have Chapter Five done -- just need to edit it. You'll have to let me know if the echo is less bothersome on Ch. 5. I know it's been driving me nuts, but I'm not sure about you. Found a new recording space other than my closet. Let me know if you think it makes a difference. Thanks Jordan you're a trooper.

Apologies to send this back to you again, but you missed the 'arboreal' at 19:45 (now 19:37).

[ktzn]

Don't apologize. I'm the one who keeps screwing up. I'm sorry for you.

Here's chapter four (again)

And here's chapter five:

Thanks.

Both are PL OK

[craigdav1]

Just checking to see if you are still interested in recording this book.

[JorWat]

It's now been over five months since the last update. Has this been abandoned?

[craigdav1]

I will send a PM to the reader to ascertain their intentions.

[JorWat]

It's been two weeks since that PM (and I sent one too with no response). I think it's safe to assume this has been abandoned. I'm happy to take on the role of BC if this gets turned into a group project.

[craigdav1]

Thank you for your generous offer. Kathy has not responded to my PM and it has been over 5 months since she last logged in. As it is late here I will deal with this tomorrow, converting it to a group project with you as BC. Are you intending to continue as DPL? If you decide to record any sections I could PL those sections.

[JorWat]

Yes, I'll continue to be DPL too.
