The IKV Honor's Blade communication console issued forth the Challange on all channels;

Objective: Make sure those without have this season.
Target: Toys For Tots
Specs: One with the most wins.
Deadline: Saturday, December 11th, 2004

(I would love to issue forth this challenge in Klingon with an English communication for the Feddies. It is for a good cause and the translator will be given reconition for their efforts.)

This is pretty close to what you want. This doesn't encode exactly back to the English, but, hey, what in this language ever does? }}: )

There were some liberties taken w/some things, but none of these changes the meaning. If you really want know what this says exactly, and why I've chosen to phrase some things some ways and not others, dop me a line from my site, from the email link below, etc.

Good luck with your drive....

Your assistance is appreciated; now let us see how the USS Excalibur rises to the challenge! Cheesy Your translation is to be broadcast in the sector you currently serve.
