A REPORT ON CNN claimed that a US hospital is frantically searching for someone fluent in Klingon.

The hospital, in Multnomah County, needs an interpreter for mentally ill patients who apparently won't speak any other language.

It's also looking for people fluent in another 55 languages, although it doesn't say which of those are terrestrial and which extraterrestrial.

Klingon is spoken by er, Klingons, the deadly enemies of Captain James T Kirk's space federation, the European Union. ยต
