Why go through all this trouble? isn't there a traditional newsreader you > could use instead of google groups? Also, it is correctly transcribed and pronounced {Qapla'} (with emphasis on the last syllable; Klingon for “success”, “victory”), not ”qapplaH”. {qap} means “insist” instead, in Klingon transcription there is no doubling of consonants (e.g. “Kahless” is just {qeylIS}), and the verb modifier {-laH} means “be able to”. So, transcription errors aside, they said “(I am) able to insist” instead, which will cause a Klingon to laugh at them (and then kill them for showing weakness). *facepalm* -- PointedEars | Twitter: @PointedEars2 Please do not cc me. /Bitte keine Kopien per E-Mail.
