Oregon Klingon Update
Via National Review Online.
I am reminded of the Oakland School Board's 1996 proposal to offer instruction in what they called "Ebonics." Absolutely everybody complained -- even, for a time, Jesse Jackson. So the School Board announced they wouldn't be teaching black children in Ebonics and the press went away. Only all they did was drop the term "Ebonics."
As I documented for NRO today, simply stopping a search for a Klingon interpreter, as Oregon has said it has done, does not mean that the issue is closed. Alll that is needed is one request for translation into Klingon to trigger E.O. 13166 anywhere.
