[Tlhingan-hol] KLI web site

[Robyn Stewart]

Another feature is that Klingonists all over the world would link to 
it, giving it a high enough value that when people searched for 
Klingon they would find it.

And then we could offer the CORRECT way to say things in Klingon. 
Perhaps Mr. Klingon can abstract most popular searches and we can 
provide good versions, and he can link to us.
