Agreed.

This list is full of people who learned a fictional alien language *for 
fun*. It's an intellectual exercise, a puzzle to be solved, if you will. 
Some have been studying it for years, sir. I can't tell you how many times 
I've asked myself some seemingly insignificant question, a passing thought, 
really, (be it about Klingon or anything else) that took me in a completely 
different direction and improved my understanding of the way things work, 
and, perhaps more importantly to me, the way that *I* work, my biases and 
assumptions.

I have absolutely no doubt that if any of us set our minds to it, was really 
curious enough, the "pIqaD Code", if it exists, would eventually crack, and 
the one who did would be smarter and more insightful for the experience.
