_______________________________________________

(MO to Lieven, 3/27/2012):  Maltz has been kind of a curmudgeon lately. (Do you know that English word? The closest Klingon equivalent is {'I'SeghIm}.) ... (then he mumbled something about {tlhIngan Hoghmey} and wandered off). When I next find him in a talkative mood, I'll try to figure out what he was referring to.

PUN: Isegrim (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isegrim et al.)

SEE ALSO:
mul 		be stubborn (v)
bergh 		be irritable (v)

TREK TRIVIA:
Chakotai says Capt. Janeway is "stubborn as a Klingon." Is this a 24th century Federation simile? (VOY "Night")
