Why?! It's a waste of bandwidth! 'Course thats only my opinion. Klingon ranks about 5 steps below Esperanto for usefulness.
Let the Geek hordes begin the defense and flame...

And since you mentioned it (kind of)...does anybody know the name of the main star of the only film made in Esperanto?

You are all just jealous that your country's publicly funded international radio network, who are usually as serious as cancer, didn't do it.
Come on, it's a LAUGH! And it shows that here in Germany, where TNG is on every weekday, Voyager, DS9 on Saturdays with Sunday repeats and TOS on Sundays, where technobabble or the ability to technobabble reminds everyone of the most highly esteemed profession (engineering), being a geek is okay, socially accepted and beginning to verge on the cool. Nazi-Episode Land (which TV show am I referencing here, anyone, for bonus points?) will soon become geek heaven on Earth. This is just the wakeup call for everyone else: LOOK AT US! WE HAVE THE MOST SUCCESSFULL ENGINEERING SECTOR IN THE WORLD! WE ARE GEEKS! LIVE WITH IT! DO SO LONG AND PROSPER!
God, it's good to be able to say that
To drive the point about our different culture home:
We build your motorcycles.
We make your Athlon CPUs.
We build your lathes.
We make your cars.
We. Design. Your. Space. Shuttle. Main. Engines.
DO NOT FUCK WITH OUR FAVOURITE TV-SHOWS.

I...believe that...it was...William Shatner. I must admit I wonder what Kirkambic Pentameter sounds like in Esperanto?

ROTFL!! I didn't think anyone knew about the special relationship between David and I.
BTW, it looks like you're pretty skilled with PhotoShop. Maybe you make me some Hasselhoff decals for my bike. Custom graphics really are a must for Aprilias, right Vance?

The Germans think David Hasselhoff is a musician...
....Americans think Arnold Schwarzenegger is a politician tho....

Actually, most people here think he is a tv series actor. Which equals bein a retarded monkey with a brain fungus fetish.
