While surfing the information superhighway the other day, I came upon
this snippet at http://iglou.com/gizweb/omni.htm
This site has technology columns by Ric Manning, reprinted from The
Courier-Journal. This column discusses Simon and Shusters plan to put all
of the Star Trek ~Encyclopedia and Chronology on CD ROM, including a
simple voice recogniton system, on the grounds that this is how the
computers in Trek work...
The article (published 1/28/95 ) is interesting enough but at the end it
says, and i quote:
'The next Star Trek project for Simon & Schuster will be a disc called
Klingon Immersion Studies, due out next fall. The disc will teach Klingon
converts all about Klingon language, culture and warfare.
Do people want to know that much about Klingons? Apparently so. Pocket
Books reports it has sold 200,000 copies of "The Klingon Dictionary" and
Simon & Schuster has done well with two audio tapes: "Conversational
Klingon" and "Power Klingon." '
Qapla'
