Does anyone have the audio for Lao Basic Course?  If anyone has it and would like help digitizing it, I'd be more than willing to help.

As far as I know, there isn't any audio for volume 1.  At least that's what the preface says.

For volume 2, the preface states:
The set of related tapes, which may be procured through the National Audio Visual Center in Washington, provide a selection of speeches, religious and secular music, and an assortment of other audio materials related to life in Laos. They are not essential for the use of the textbook but can add a dimension of understanding of Lao culture...
It doesn't appear that the volume 2 Lao tapes match the book.  In any event, I couldn't find any library that has the tapes.

I submitted the Lao book as well as the Hindi book even though they don't have tapes. I'm hoping some native speakers will step up and record audio for both course.

Does the Hindi book look usable for self study?  I got the impression the "active introduction's" weren't really designed for that use...
