Ian Red, where, geographically are you, "Pal"? I hear "Dude" here at the University of Washington, and "Chum", but only hear "Pal" when someone is trying to be provocative. In that lonely place Frodo for the first time fully realized his homelessness and danger...Suddenly he was aware that two black specks were moving slowly along
