I haven't used this material, nor do I even remember the exact title or
publisher, but I remember when browsing through Borders that I had seen
some books/CDs in the language section that had a considerable number of
CDs and were touted as being used by the diplomatic service to learn the
various languages.  I thought at the time that they looked intriguing,
but as always I have many "must haves" which crowd out the "would likes."
