Re: Klingon speaker needed in Portland, Oregon

Yeah... but the story, funny or as false as it is, still focusses on
conlangers who are mental.  It's the Lunatic Survey all over again. :-)

You really have to check your email every day, maybe even twice, to keep it
from piling up.  AND HALF OF IT IS SPAM!
