  Sort of the like the commercial for this "Babbel" language learning deal.
My late father used something similar to learn Portuguese, when he traveled
to Rio De Janiero, Brazil. I think his last trip was 3 months before he died 
of pancreatic cancer over 14 years ago.

 BM> ... How deep is a frog pond?  Nee..deep, nee..deep

  I thought I toad you about that one. <G>
