probably another pointless post

edit: cross-posting with SpM and Gothbogg. Yet, though I haven't seen two preceeding posts, my points stand unchanged. end of edit

****

SpM, there is a saying in Georgian which may be rendered as 'it is best for the homeland to have children stronger then fathers'. I mean, that is what you mods bargained for - is it strange to find the sibblings snap at you for being off topic? I'd feel as proud father if I were you.

But for one point:

Let me turn to you, dear Elessar and Gothbogg. Be so kind as to review the title of the thread. It runs merely as 'the Dunedain?'. I.e., no imperatives to explain one's self in the title. Now the initial post:

No imperative to give explanations either - the answer to that question is merely 'yes, I'm dissapointed', or 'no, I'm not'. So technically, you were not correct in jumping at poor poor Saucey, not at all, no, kind Sirs!

By the way, Welcome to the Downs. I know for sure your threads will be interesting, fascinating and with exact nomenclature to run along their excellent contents

And, not to stray off topic myself:

Yes, I'm dissapointed too, but not much. So, it may be said as: It's not something that I lose a lot of sleep over

I lost a lot more sleep over Elrond coming to Aragorn having to urge him to war and press him up with Arwen whose (excuse messed up quotation) 'life is passing as long as ring exists'. Let me lay my hands on screenplay author, please.

cheers
