	Aw, man, don't bring up the "Freedom Fries," I was already
embarrassed enough for my country as it is!  Anyway, I think the
O'Reilly book is actually quite good for learning, if you do all
of the exercises and stuff.  We just need to get O'Reilly to publish
the English version (and there are still a few exercise solutions to
translate into English).
