	In STII, right before the Reliant ambushes the Enterprise,
Khan quotes a Klingon proverb:  "Revenge is a dish best served cold"
or some such.  My question is:  How did Khan come by this proverb?
His only previous encounter with the 23rd century was with the
Enterprise 15 years before.  He tells Chekov on Ceti Alpha 5 that
he has been marooned so I would think that he had no other contact
with the outside world.  Did his wife start quoting alien proverbs
before her death or what?!  Did the Reliant have a library file on
nasty sayings?  When did he have time to read them? :-)

	Any thoughts on this (or does anyone care)?
