Does that mean that you are pining for a leather bound copy, or
that you are in leather, pining for a copy? It makes a
difference.

qep = meeting (n)
qep'a' = big or significant meeting
wej = three
wejDIch = third
Twice before, we have had meetings in Philadelphia for a week
in a motel of Klingon language enthusiasts, speaking Klingon,
interviewing with the international press, and generally having
a good time. The local waitresses know us well at this point.
In July, we are planning the third such meeting of many of the
people on this list. The first year had half a dozen people
with another half dozen visiting for less than the full week.
Last year, we had 18 all week. We're hoping for around thirty
this year.

It is an unusual setting. It would require some explaining. For
now, a day without secrets is like a night without stars.

Good luck. You remind me that I ordered a betleH from someone
on this list who kept almost making them and almost making them
and finally made them, but seemed to expect the collective us
to figure out postage and make the final link, and I failed to
do that.
If you are still out there with a pile of betleH blanks and you
are angry for my failure (and perhaps that of others here as
well), please let me know. I'm still interested and willing to
overpay for postage just so I don't have to figure it out.
