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: http://makeashorterlink.com/?W2D4513A1P.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.htmlThere'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).

I just type "Make A Shorter Link" into Yahoo! search box, and up it comes. See: http://www.makeashorterlink.com/or just type into location box: www.makeashorterlink.com/

hmm...seemed that "shorter link" wanted a name and e-address at one time, but mebbe I was wrong. Anyway, here's the cached SF Glossary...pretty interesting: http://makeashorterlink.com/?T63F165A1

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!
