HolQeD 11:3, p. 13. On his drive up to attend qep'a' HutDIch, it is believed that Marc Okrand was in communication with Maltz (the precise mechanics responsible for this are unknown and unimportant to the present concern). Traffic along the interstate was particularly heavy, a topic which at some point entered into the conversation.Dr. Okrand reports that Maltz volunteered the Klingon term Hutvagh, a noun,meaning "too many people or things in a place all at once." Maltz furthe rindicated that the term was used as word play, a substitution for the more common Qu'vatlh which might otherwise be heard in such situations.

PUN:  Hut vagh "nine five":  I-95 is the interstate highway between Washington D.C. and Philadelphia.
