Data filled:

I can PL until we get a better one! I've been editing my recordings the last few days and it would be nice to hear someone else's voice for a change! Please. I'm so :mrgreen: of hearing me! Plus, we could escape launch pad sooner that way ... not that I don't like it here ... but I'd rather be in Readers Wanted!

Hey John and Brian - I see there's an underscore at the start of the file name.

I've fixed it in the uploader. The file is now at https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/fairhaven_01_donnelly_128kb.mp3 8-)
