subject: Old Klingons

Hi!
I watched the TOS' episode "Troubles with Tribbles" this afternoon and I re-
marked something interesting.I saw some klingons that looked like humans(ex-
cept that they had pinchs and dirty hairs) and they didn't even have big
foreheads.Also,the crew of Enterprise(who was mostly humans)fought with them
and they were toes-to-toes with the klingons.Also(again!),the klingons didn't
seem to have a big sense of honor.Can somebody explains this to me please??
P.S.Thank you all for the infos on the E-C.

Klingons were, at the time, in the habit of taking the drug used by
Mud's Women. Later, however, when the full effect of the drug (which was
a slighty more severe one than for humans) was realised, it was banned.

That is the case, TOS had a very tight budget. As far as the TOS era Klingons 
not having honor.. wellllll, chuckle, let's just say that the TOS era 
Klingons were viewed very differently then the current ones.
