This is interesting.

Does anyone have a transcript of what the SkyBox cards say in the
pseudo-{pIqaD}?  I quickly looked over a few of them, and most of it
is random, but there are some places where there appear to be actual
words according to that mapping, which don't correspond to either the
Klingon or English on the card.

I've deciphered enough of it to confirm that (parts of) the original
text is in English.
