Good heavens, I must be really tired; I cannot, for the life of me, figure out which group I'm in. -,-;;;  Can someone give me a hand? 
 
~I was born after Silm came out (nearly ten years after). 
 
~I read The Hobbit when I was about six or seven; immediately thereafter, I wanted to learn more about Middle-earth and its inhabitants. 
 
~Around age 8, I saw the Rankin/Bass version of The Hobbit, and the Bakshi LotR. 
 
~Attempted to read LotR around the same time; failed miserably. 
 
~Started to read LotR in October of 2001; was little, if at all, influenced by the upcoming movie. 
 
~Saw the movie on December 21, 2001; was dumbed with astonishment and amazement which bordered on stupification. 
 
~Restarted LotR, reading the entire book through in three weeks. 
 
~Started into The Silm in November 2002. 
 
~To date, have read The Hobbit 35-40 times, LotR 10 times, Silmarillion twice, Unfinished Tales once, and The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien once.  Am currently hunting down the HoME series. 
 
Help?  Please?  ^^;;; 
 
Abedithon le,
