I've been to <qep'a'mey cha'DIch wejDIch je> and each time I noticed a
real quantum leap in my language abilities. For some reason, being there,
hearing it spoken and speaking it myself causes something to gel in my
mind (yummy metaphor, huh?). It is the closest we come to being immersed
in the language and culture.
Besides that, it's great fun! For five days a year we can behave like
real Klingons and enjoy the company of other Klingons. We eat, drink,
sing, celebrate and scare innocent bystanders. What's not to like?
