I have to comment on this one! I have been begging Rashut Hashidur for years
through their PR department to renew those old tapes that only then have,
since they do it for so many other oldies... so far it hasn't happened,
perhaps if ALL English teachers were to write to them individually they
would reconsider??? Please take it upon yourself, oh ye kind etnier, to
e-mail the authorities and beg for it as well!...Good luck
Adi
