Robin Day (Lt. jaj) said: "I . . . feel that the letters in the pIqaD were
originally rune like. They each had a meaning of their own. These meanings
probably still exist. Hence lettering on Klingon ships that doesn't "say"
anything is actually a set of runic symbols which convey a concept - neat uh?"
Anyone (other than myself) willing to entertain this view?
Also, has anyone considered that the original tlhIngan "runes" might have
been line drawings rather than filled in forms? Line drawings are easier
to produce quickly.
