Out of curiosity mostly.. Is {porgh} able to describe the body of an animal too, or is it only to be used for human/humanoid species ? qunnoH ghoghwIj HablI'vo' vIngeHta'

If this isn't yet relevant, then I've stumbled across secret information and it will be very relevant very soon. O. Roy Chalk had a varied life and you can look him up to find out more about him, but I'm thinking the most relevant part of his life is within the following paragraph. He purchased the Washington, D.C.<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington,_D.C.> transit system on August 15, 1956, for $13.5 million, renaming it DC Transit<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_Transit>. Chalk owned the Georgetown Car Barn in Washington, D.C., adjacent to the famous steps where the part of "The Exorcist"<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Exorcist_(film)> was filmed. The building was a streetcar shop erected in 1895 that supported the Capital Transit Company<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_Transit_Company> system, which circulated through the District of Columbia. By Public Law 389, enacted by the United States Congress, Chalk was directed to replace all streetcar operations with buses, which was completed on January 28, 1962. On January 14, 1973 WMATA condemned DC Transit and its sister company, the Washington, Virginia and Maryland Coach Company and acquired their assets for $38.2 million. He retained ownership of the Georgetown Car Barn, however, which had been converted into office space between 1957 and 1960. Chalk owned the building until 1992.

A quick thought on time
by mayqel qunenoS 04 Nov '16

04 Nov '16

While I was reading klingonska, I came across the various ways of asking/telling time. And my favourite one by far, was the "how many times have heard it" method; it sounds exotic and the very fact that we don't know for sure "what is actually being heard" adds an even more "alien" punch to the experience of telling time in klingon. It is a pity that by using this method, one can only express time, if it is for example one 'o clock, two 'o clock etc.. Unfortunately we can't express - by the use this method - a time like 10.20, 11.40 etc. qunnoH jan puqloD

Anyone wan to help design a Klingon ruler?
by Benjamin Atkinson 04 Nov '16

04 Nov '16

My kids and I are trying to design a Klingon ruler. We could use some help. I cannot promise you riches or battle glory, but if we pull this off, I'll send you a Klingon ruler of your very own. Here are our questions and a link to a form if you want to join the team: 1. From here <http://daily-klingon.tumblr.com/post/132822212317/units-of-measurement> we find the Klingon unit of length 'uj' is 34.83cm (derived from BoP poster). Can anyone confirm this? 2. We understand the Klingon number system was originally ternary, but was decimalized to facilitate communication with other civilizations. Might we report units of 'uj' as 0.1 uj, 0.2 uj, etc? 3. Should a Klingon ruler double as a weapon? Apply to the team via this link. <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfc4--MvMuLlmvvQ36M6VBKjzrI3S_Uy5c…> Thank you. Ben
