SO much so that they get excited about new projects they seem to love having
references to Klingon and tlhIngan Hol cropping up all over the place.. I
have even had occasion when CBS contacted me to ask if they can give my
contacts out and deal direct with people/companies who have approached them
about projects that are very small and/or have tight deadlines. They seem
far more relaxed about the whole thing.
