If your only goal, {DuDwI'}, is to mix things up, then {ghIlab ghew SoH}. If
you want to
come into the fold, then either try to communicate clearly, or offer
observations that
will serve to further our ability to use Klingon to communicate clearly.

====================================
Thanks for telling me what ghunchu'wI' wrote means something other than what
he literally wrote. I need to hear from ghunchu'wI' himself what he means, if
he thinks I mis-read his writing. Klingon is a rather literal language.
Is this communique clear enough?
