Here's the relevant bit of that email:
As for your specific questions... I can give only a
partial answer right now. Maltz has been kind of a
curmudgeon lately. (Do you know that English word?
The closest Klingon equivalent is {'I'SeghIm}.) ...
When I next find him in a talkative mood, I'll try
to figure out what he was referring to.
That's got to be a pun, though I can't see it.
