Who's hun? i'm fine...
I read on the introduction of LOTR that the author won't take the time of day for all the interpritations, he didn't mean to write of world war 1 nor 2, and he just made it up as he went along... I believe him.
Shea- will you by my bride's maid?

Yes El, you are correct, Tolkien never intended LOTR to be an alogory for WW1/2 or anything else. He never intended to even publish it at all when he first began to write it, got talked into it by C.S. Lewis I think. did you know that it is the biggest selling work of fiction in the last 100 years! Eddings(who I do read now and then) has only got about another 60 million books to sell and he will have caught up

Ah- there's nothing that comes close to TLOTR!
Even mighty Assimov isn't that good!
