  7. Many happy returns of the day!
  8. I have a hobby of recording other folks concerts for them, to sometimes prepare commercial releases. I have access to this technology, and my experience is that it is always compromise. You will never be able to completely eliminate the clunks, but you may be able to reduce their prominence; the cost will be loosing clarity on some of the consonants in the spoken words. And it will take many, many hours of work to do this; it is as much art as it is science and each step requires judgement calls. The question at hand is to determine the authenticity of the recordings; if they are not authentic, then cleaning them up would be wasted effort.

  10. I read all the way through *all* of the Dr. Dolittle series 4 or 5 times. I think my favorite of the bunch was Dr. Dolittle and the Green Canary. But I also liked Willows ... In my late 20s, had a minor obsession about collecting oboes of various types (two oboes - one for safety, an english horn, an oboe d'amore), and when I got a new one, I'd look at my housemate and go "putt, putt, putt, putt", while shifting an imaginary gear-shift who definitely understood the reference And of course there were other Oz books. Can't remember all the titles now, there was one about Ozma, and another centered around Tick-Tock. But I also liked both Winnie the Pooh and House at Pooh Corner, and when I was much younger, the Dr. Seuss books.
  11. The computer typesetting program "troff" (from c. 1970) put two spaces after a period even with proportional fonts, regardless of how many you provided in the inputted document. Many articles in the Bell System Technical Journal and several computer science text books were set using this program for the next 15 to 20 years. And I have to say, I've just gotten used to the way it looks and prefer it that way. However, I think that the forum software only displays one space, despite the fact that I systematically typed two in the previous paragraph of this diatribe.
