Right. I think I might embark on one of those dreaded lists. But before then I do have a major point to make.

Although I think the noble Viscount Kettle, aka the Saucepan Man is too quick to dismiss the case against Boromir88, he does make a great deal of sense when he suggests we look in closer detail at the Gil-Galad voters. For a lot who have, after all, succeeded in lynching an innocent, they're sounding remarkably pious and self-justifying today.

Vide mormegil's patrician little remark about Gil always being an unwitting cobbler anyway. However accurate this is, it is misleading. It hides the fact that you, morm, did the obvious thing with the obvious result.

It's no coincidence that the Gil-Galad voters coincide heavily with the voters suggesting that the Boromir bandwagon was founded on little or no evidence. The possible misdeed of the Boro-voters-who might still be right-is to them a far more suspect misdemeanour that their own understandable mistake.

But come on. Lynching Gil-Galad is the action of a sleepwalker, a mere reflex, not a case. "Stop behaving like a fool! Die!" Is there really so much fabulous evidence in that? So much more tactical than wanting Boromir to at least undergo a proper test? Before I mentioned my leading suspicion, Boromir was completely out of the picture. No one even mentioned him. And that's never a good sign.

Having said that, were I a wolf I personally wouldn't have voted to lynch Gil-Galad. Such a dull course of action.
