Studying Esperanto is how I first learned about the KLI. I first learned
about the KLI when Dr. Schoen mailed out a card about the KLI to all the
members of the Esperato League of North America.
A lot of the Klingon speakers I've met have had a lot of experience with
other languages, including Esperanto. In fact, we've had several linguists
here on the list.
I know Dr. Schoen has been doing a survey of the educational background
and language knowledge of the members of the KLI. I would be interested
in knowing what the findings of his survey are.
