Rosetta Stone Language Instruction
Y'all have seen the ads for Rosetta Stone on late night television. Early in the commercial, they talk about how the program is being used by various government agencies, including NASA, the State Department, and the Department of Defense. Has anyone else wondered what languages they are teaching NASA? Can you picture the contracting officer ordering 10 copies of Advanced Martian and 5 copies of Conversational Venusian?
I know it's no big deal. It just seemed awfully incongruous to me.
