Who *IS* MrKlingon?

Joel Anderson, who, despite rumors to the contrary, is not a Klingon. He is however:

A Software Engineer who has worked in software development and the telecommunications industry for over 20 years. He still remembers the "good old days" when computing online meant dialing with a rotary phone, using his VIC 20.

A science fiction enthusiast, Joel may occasionally need to be reminded that he is a human, from Earth.

A language hobbyist who enjoys building programs that use science fiction languages, especially those found in the worlds of Star Trek. But not only Klingon - see his Mando'a pages at http://Mandoa.mrklingon.org

A card carrying member of the Klingon Language Institute. See his article in the institute's journal, HolQeD, "Building a Klingon Computer".

Joel enjoys developing software to read the World English Bible translation. See his Mando'a Bible (http://mndbible.mrklingon.org) and the Klingon Language Version (http:klv.mrklingon.org). AND his podcasts - http://miitverd.blogspot.com, and http://klingonword.org.

A certified space cadet, Joel and his daughter are graduates of Space Camp, and love to launch model rockets - ask him about his daughter's terrific science fair projects! Recently he's built his own spaceship! http://Spaceship.MrKlingon.org

His long suffering wife claims to have never watched an episode of Star Trek, but is thoughtful and supportive of his many eccentricities. (She has been heard to utter a Klingon phrase or two.) Visit her website - if you wish to learn how to make beautiful mosaics

Joel does not claim to be the all encompassing expert on things Klingon. But he's always happy to field questions on the Klingon language.
