Have you posted the vocabulary from the glossaries in these novels?  <hint, 
hint!>  Did Okrand and the KLI help him with these too.  (I'm guessing yes, 
judging from your comments.)  I tried searching the KLI Archives, but the 
interface wasn't working.

The only other vocabulary and notes from De Candido's novels in my notes 
are to his "Diplomatic Implausibility" (2001).
