Dear Joseph, et al

Just a footnote to the Fokus Deutsch video issue.  Given the time and
expense required to digitize the material, it would make much more sense for
Annenberg to produce a DVD version of the video and make this available for
purchase and licensing (at a reasonable fee).  Unfortunately, when I brought
up that possibility with Annenberg, they informed me that they had no
intention or desire to do so.  Obviously, when you think you have a captive
audience there's not a lot of motivation to meet customer needs.  Jack
