A number of mistakes, especially with punctuation and capitalization, as well as things being abbreviated that are clearly not. Fixed them. Also bad formatting with weird extra spaces added. Removed those. Also removed author notes fixing typos. We transcribe the typos as they were written, we do not write our own corrections in the transcription.
There may be mistakes missed so please check carefully. I had to fix a lot of things.
