Section 28 PL OK!
Section 12 PL OK, but one word on pronunciation for future recordings:
4:47, 7:22 - "They were a legitimate perquisite" / "I do not refer to perquisites" - this is PER-qui-zit, not pre-REQ-ui-zit.
Perquisite: an expected benefit from a job (such as a maid receiving the lady's cast off clothing).
Prerequisite: a required course or condition to be met before advancing on to the next thing.

Why are more astronauts from Ohio than any other state? Because it’s so bad that they want to leave earth entirely!

Hi Tricia, Thanks for finding this. I fixed the both mispronunciations and can upload the new file if you wish. The funny thing is that before I did the reading, perquisite is one of the words I looked up to ensure that I knew the proper pronunciation. Then when I did the reading, I completely misread it.TriciaG wrote: ↑July 21st, 2021, 7:43 am Section 28 PL OK!

Thanks! The text reading itself is OK; there are just two minor things to fix:
- About 2 seconds of silence at start; should only be between 0.5-1 second.
- Please name the file with Arabic numerals: yellowclaw_11_rohmer_128kb

May I read Sections 15: XV. Cave of the Golden Dragon, and 27: XXVII. Grove of a Million Apes? They sound like exciting places to visit!
Thanks, Todd
