Hi, here is section 6 - length- 4:18.80. I do hope I said all the formula type things correctly. There was an abbreviation "min." that I said as "minimum" which is what I found to make the most sense when I looked up abbreviations for chemistry type words. Just let me know if you want me to change anything. Thanks, Gini

Thank you!
I've put this and Section 7 in the MW Ready for PL
I've also put you in for Sections 9 and 10.

Sometimes we just have to go for what makes the most sense.
We'll see what are DPL thinks.

Wicked. Question though: Do I need to differentiate aloud between capital and lowercase letters when reading out formulas? For example, my section uses both t and T, but for separate expressions/formulae. Do I need to say "lowercase t" and "capital T"?

Good question, and I don't know that I've got an authoritative answer on how to read these formulas, but I think some sort of distinction needs to be made. Where there might be confusion, I might read "upper case T" and "lower case t." Then there are some subscripts which I think I would read as, for example, "lower cast t minus lower case t sub zero." It does sound awkward, but I don't know how else to make it clear. I'm certainly open for suggestions.

Hm, all right then. Apparently, "lower-case t sub zero" can also be read as "t-nought", but the question is, what did they say back in the late nineteenth century when reading these mathematical expressions aloud? Dunno how to find out. Am I thinking about this too much?

So, either reading is fine as long as you are consistent.
How were things read a'back then? Who knows?
So we just take our best shot and that will be good enough since no one else probably knows either. And, there might have been different ways they were read anyway. So, read however makes the most sense to you.

Hi Team!

Section 3 is PL OK!

In section 6, I have a suggestion for an optional edit; I think that reading the footnote directly where it is annotated in the text, at 2:22 [A], makes it clearer. Let me know what you think, and I can otherwise mark it PL OK!

Section 7 is PL OK!

Section 12 is PL OK!

Section 15 is PL OK!

You've got it!
Thank you.
