Hi, for what its worth I've added a few comments and some general copy-editing. I hope you can see the comments on the drive doc. (I'm guessing my comments will be automatically visible to you, here's the link anyway https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bR9KwaP9IgBpVm_btn8EOa0j3rIe2SPcQjosmU1ZkOo/edit?usp=sharing
Sorry, I really don't have time right now to add much more than that (I'm finishing up a huge project and moving continent in the next few days!!!!). Please disregard any comments/edits as you see fit!
