Klingon Bird of Prey (KBP) poster: THE TEXT!



Here it is, gang!  Enjoy.  I've decided not to point out all the new words
and "interesting" (!) usages, so as not to spoil your fun. 

Note that I have corrected all the obvious typos, of which there were
several, many of which may have been caused by the ill-advised choice of a
hard to read bright green font on a dark blue/black background without a
clearly legible /'/.  Instead they used one with a *very* narrow, straight
line for the apostraphe that is hard to see even when it wasn't omitted by
the letterer or artist. Also, a few words were strangely divided -
including oddly enough {tlh Ingan}! - or squashed together, apparently in
an effort to make the text fit the columns.  Okrand obviously did not get a
chance to proof-read the final text before it went to the printers.

There is, I think, one error Okrand is responsible for.  See if you can
spot the lapsus oculi, where his eye slipped down a line when looking up
an entry in TKD.
