I was not flaming you it is just that if you interesting in Arda then it is important that you get the full impression of all the Speaking Folk, and a large part of what the Elves are is the sheer power of emotion you feel. If you believe that the Eldar don’t have emotions then you miss a large part of the art of JRR Tolkien and Ea. And I don’t know about other people in these Forums but personally i am not interested in the works for academic reasons, but as that it is a work of art.
