Dear jumbolandia, I hear you. I'm training myself on all of this, so these first videos are a bit rough. I'm currently trying to edit, but it appears the loud music was doing a lovely job of covering the obnoxious humming sound from our cold vault. I'm now delving into complicated stripping of audio editing to see if I can remove the hum too. I'll let you know how it goes, and thanks for your feedback.

I"m sorry, but the back round music really made it difficult to understand her and annoying to hear...please re-edit so I can view once more
