Just one item. I posted this to the list at the time it happened,
perhaps you were not reading then (April).
When I met Okrand at BabelCon in April, we "purchased" him at the slave
suction. His "official" duty was to clarify one word: {toQDuj} "bird of
prey (type of ship)". According to Marc, a {toQ} is an avian predator
on the Homeworld whose closest Terran analogue would be a "bird of
prey". When I told him I had theorized that {toQ} might mean "scout"
(since that's what a BoP is) he said, no, it's definitely an animal from
Qo'noS.
