Wow, are we anthromorphizing. Those are Klingons who greet with nuqneH,
*not* Humans. A Klingon would not necessarily trade small talk, and for them
getting right to the point of the conversation could be the naturalest thing
in the Universe. We've got to remember that Klingons ARE NOT Humans!
P.S. In _Hero Worship_, did you all see the pIqaD on the wall in Data's
quarters?
