[Knight of Gondor]

No matter what you know there is always much more you can learn.

Do I detect a Ken Ham quote? “There’s always an infinite amount more to know, which means no matter how much you know there’s always more to know, which means no matter how much you know, you don’t know how much more there is to know anyway, which means no matter how much you do know or don’t know, in relation to what it is, whatever that is, so let’s face it, you just don’t know much at all.”

I will correct people but as the knight of gondor posted, not really in an "arrogant" way.

Yes sir, by setting the proper example, I’m a knight a fellow can look up to!

To tell you the truth, I've almost never met anyone who is even a bit into Tolkien... So tell me, is your environment crowded with Tolkien amateurs, experts and haters?

I don’t meet up with too many Tolkien fans either, Mariska Greenleaf, but it’s a matter of my environment. You have to know where to hang out. I’ve attended a Lord of the Rings church study group, and a lecture or two at the local college, but sometimes, the experts or amateurs are on THIS board!

So I guess that when I would meet an annoying expert, I would kinda like it...

You don’t want him or her to be annoying! We’re not complaining about self-styled experts or amateurs themselves, we’re talking about how they act arrogant, either way.
