Sections 21-23 have been uploaded, and ready for PL.

https://librivox.org/uploads/kazbek/_lives1_23_laertius_128kb.mp3

I'm pretty sure I made a couple errors in 22, so let me know of anything I ought to check. It's Socrates, so kind of an important one.

Thank you! We also ask readers to tell us the duration of the recordings (mm:ss) for each upload.

The filenames have an extra leading underscore. If you need to upload these files again for another reason, please remove it; otherwise, I'll correct them during cataloging.

The durations are
Section 21: (02:38)
Section 22: (24:12)
Section 23: (09:54)

Ah! Sorry about that, it's a space on my computer that snuck in there somehow. Checker caught it but I thought it was wrong. I'll fix for next time.

Hi Markus,
You did a very good job on these sections.
I am not sure what kind of errors you mean. If you think you mispronounced some names or words, standard PL won't catch that, certainly not me. There are some clicks and background noises, but they are tolerable.
Beside the filenames noted by Michael, you could correct the silence lengths, as instructed in the head post:
"Leave 0.5 to 1 second of silence at the beginning. ... Leave 5 seconds of silence at the end."
In sec.22 they are 1.5 / 7
In sec.23 they are 1.7 / 2
Easy fixes, no rerecording required :)

Here's the files with the silences trimmed (or lengthened). And with the filenames edited.

Thanks! Queued for spot PL. We ask readers to tell us the duration of the recordings (mm:ss) for each upload. It helps us to verify that we got the right version.

Ah! Okay, I understand the system now:
Section 21: (2:38)
Section 22: (24:10)
Section 23: (9:55)

Hi.
I was previously assigned section 14 and was unable to complete it due to exams/ academic obligations. My exams just recently concluded.
Can I reclaim the section/ Get an extension? I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused.
Sorry and Thank you.

No problem. I've reassigned you the section with an extension to July 10.
