So that's why they don't have Tolklangs there, but Klingon.
Or have they dropped Klingon as well? Last time I checked
it was still there -- well, that's been half a year ago or
so.

There are several names for it, yes.

There only needs to be an 'at' and the whole word is
considered to be an email address which is of course
automatically linked. So yes, if you refer to the <mailto:>
thingy, it was my mail program. The other one is of course
only the pronounciation of that courseword, where 'at' is
the X-Sampa workaround for the IPA schwa.
