King? I didn't know I was King.  I've been called a High Priest before 
(by several reporters), which fits better your scheme of Okrand being God 
and I being his intermediary.  I mean, if I'm King where is my crown? 
Where's my royal sceptre?

Oh, and on a more serious note, I am pleased to report that Krankor is 
alive and well (though sadly a little too busy). I had a delightful 
though brief chat with him the other day.  I guess that means we can stop 
eulogizing him.  He will make his presence felt upon the list again, as 
his schedule permits.  I also have his assurances that a new column will 
be arriving in time for the next issue of HolQeD, so if you don't see him 
here before then, at least you'll get to read him in the December issue.
