They all had the same graphic (an eyeball on fire), but each said "Danger: Laser Radiation" in ktb a different language. As the instructor put each sign on the overhead, he'd ask what language it was in, and we'd call out our answers. "German!" we'd cry. "Portuguese!" "Korean!" Finally he put up a sign written in curvy, jagged letters and dots, and asked if anyone knew what ktb language it was in. Without really thinking about it, I ktb found myself saying, "Klingon?" And it was Klingon. Now, I am not now, was not then, and have never been what you'd cal a Star Trek fan. But somehow I managed to identify the Klingon laser hazard sign using the sheer force of my own innate nerdery. The point is this: If you're at a laser safety seminar, you're a nerd.
