For some reason the Elvish/Black Speech/Tolkienish banter set me to wondering if there were any Glossaries of Klingon terms out there.

Stupid question really:

P.S. You can go up the Open/Google Directory tree then back down again for loads on Tolkienian Languages.

http://www.sfwa.org/writing/glossary.html

There's also an intriguing SF Glossary by a Dr. Raymond, but the link is dead right now...however, it is cached on Google, just pop "Science Fiction Glossary" into the search window (I'm not registered at Make A Shorter Link for the long cache url).

ablation, meaning heat and friction remove enough of the tile material that
after several re-entries they must be replaced.

Good grief--I had a cardiac ablation earlier this year!
