Not having been able to stay current with tlhIngan-Hol for well over a
month (though my archive keeps growing), I don't know if this has already
been mentioned. The Oct., 1997 issue of _Yahoo! Internet Life_ magazine
(hard copy) reviews the KLI site on p. 106, under "Education: Learning a
Foreign Language". The review reads (the comments are mine!):
Klingons might be a fictional race*, but that doesn't mean they can't have
a real language. A trained linguist created** a complete artificial
language with its own vocabulary, grammary, and usage for one of the _Star
Trek_ movies. Fans took over and formed the KLINGON LANGUAGE INSTITUTE to
help "promote, foster, and develop" the language to to "bring together
Klingon language enthusiasts from around the world."
