Learning Latin

[New wine skin]

Anyone know of a distance Ed or taped lecture style program for learning Latin?

A few local Universities offer Latin, but the tuition would be $$$$.

I just want to get my feet wet and learn basic vocab etc...

I, too, am interested in learning Latin (and Dutch as well), as there seems to be so many writings that are yet untranslated. What books/lectures are recommended here?

I took Latin in high school, but hope to re-learn it in time. I'd recommend Wheelock's Latin. It's pretty much the standard text -- and there're all sorts of supplementary materials available for use with it (a workbook, readings, etc.).
