I would never do this, of course, as I'm a prime rib beef, monster truck driving, red blooded American citizen, but I've heard stories about people who've gone to strange lands run by peg-leg pirates sailing ships of booty, and brothels run by kick-ass kats, with torrential thunderstorms cackling across the magnetic sky. These people would scribble on a piece of paper the words "Rosetta Stone", hold hand out while amidst a teeming crowd, an unknown hand would whisk the note away --and, miraculously five days later, a copy of the Rosetta Stone written in the specific language in question would arrive on the peoples' doorsteps, brought by winged doves with olive branches in their beaks. I think this happened in communist Russia.
