    Hi Daniel,

    I'm American like Scott. You did to a great first attempt. I too had some troubles understanding some areas where you mumble entire words and other areas where you seem to be swallowing letters, like when you pronounce Coke, the K got lost. It comes out Co-Cola and not CoCa-Cola.
    "You already (something) produCt at every turn."
    "A higher purity means a greater yield" - this one you swallowed the "greater yeild" and I had to listen to a number of times to understand what you were saying.
    And the sentence after that something about hundred dollars maybe... same thing, I can't make out what you are saying as you mumble it all together until "not being pissed away." You need to clear up the words.
    I only speak two languages, English and bad English.

    Нi, thank you for responding.
    I really mispronounced the word "yield", you are right. And that sentence you have mentioned at the end was " That's 130 million dollars a profit that is not being pissed away by some substandard cook"
    Appreciate your help.
