On a personal note, I received daily classified--not just restricted to government use--FBIS-collected data over a several month period in 1988. Second, no fees are charged for accessing FBIS files stored in libraries which are government documents repositories. I used FBIS unclassified daily LATAM reports for my dissertation data. I still use this data base on a regular basis. Ann Rosenthal
