I've been searching for this magazine (thought I think it's actually a
digest sized publication) since this post first appeared. Last night I
found a store that had the October, November, and December issues of
something called Disney Adventures and my wife and I scanned through all
three. We never found anything about Klingon (let alone a mention of the
journal). If anyone has this and can send me photocopies of the relevant
pages, please do so. If you can find one in a store go it would be great
if you could buy it and send it my way (for the archive), but email me
about it first, so I'm not having to reimburse a doze of you for the same
item. Or, if you want to buy it and just donate it, that's *always*
welcome.
Bottom line though, if someone is mentioning HolQeD somewhere, I want to
see it. That way I can follow up with a letter to the periodical's editor
and offer an interview and we can get more exposure!
