Hey Boom, I know nothing about Rosetta Stone software except for two issues:
1. I think Lesley Ann Machado is super hot
and I would buy absolutely anything she sold. Not sure if it's the sexy nature of her outfits, the ever so slight hint of dimples, or just great looks, but if she were teaching the class, I'd be there.
2. Over a year ago, I asked the following question: "
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?
NOBODY bit.
The only responses I got were about NASA being such a multinational organization and about the international space station. Of course I knew about that stuff and knew why NASA would be using Rosetta if they were, but where the heck is the humor in guys at the Cape learning Russian or Chinese when one could imagine Remedial Andromedan or Introductory Goa'uld. Then we got sidetracked talking about Machiavelli.
Life's too short to take it so seriously.
