The video is entitled "American Tongues" and comes in two versions, 56 minutes
and slightly longer. I don't have the ordering information handy, but if
the person wanting it needs further info, I can dig it up. We have been
using it in our intro classes amd consider it to be quite well-done. For
what it's worth, the students love it.

The videotape your colleague is looking for is "American Tongues." I
recommend it highly. I'll try to find the address for ordering a copy
but am not sure I'll succeed. It has been shown on PBS and the Discovery
channel several times during the past four or five years.
