 CM> Maybe Klingons are born Mongol and turn into the TNG as they age.  B-)
Wouldn't explain Alexander though, would it.

I'll tell you what I heard about the reason Klingons in TOS took 
the Mongol
look.  This was the 'explanation' of why they look different in the 
movies and 
in TNG, DSN, etc.  In TOS, it is said that the Klingons thought 
that humans 
were such a weak race that the Klingon's believed that their own 
apearance
would kill a human from fright, so the Klingons altered their 
appearance so as
not to kill any humans unless there was direct combat.  What's the 
point of 
winning a fight if there is no fighting involved was the 
ilosophy.
I heard this 'word of mouth' so I don't know if it's really true or 
not.  The
'real life reason' was makup costs and techniques and wanting a 
meaner look
s for Klingons when the movies came out. (Wrath of Kahn).  So, I 
guess the
above explanation could be true, I just wish I saw it in writing or 
in an 
episode.
Please, if you would like to reply to me directly, and ifyou have 
any other
information or comments or you would just like to tell me 
that my imformation
is incorrect, just e-mail me at 
willowolf@juno.com.
Thanks,
