Good way to reply to UFO question?
« on: July 14, 2015, 05:44:11 PM »
I thought this story here http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/14/world/feat-klingon-wales-ufo-response/index.html , in how the Wales government reply to a UFO question in Klingon was great. What do you think?

I really wish the US government had a better sense of humor.

I liked the conservatives reply to the liberals, that went something like "I always knew that the "liberals" were from another planet..." I also could have seen the response coming from one side to the other on a number of things.


Maybe in the future it will become commonplace to reply to "what one side thinks as a nonsense question from the other side" in Klingon (maybe JRRT Quena (sp)) or some other made up language just to show how serious they take the question.

I don't know, I thought their response to the petition to build a Death Star showed at least somebody had a sense of humour: https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/response/isnt-petition-response-youre-looking

Ah yeah, I forgot about that.

And I really like the answer.
