That's what I thought, but when you wrote "heavy music," I, being somewhat older and mostly out of touch with the current trends, just thought that maybe you were referring to something else and not heavy metal music. Plus your definition and mine (Quiet Riot, AC/DC, Def Leppard, etc) may differ.

I count them too, though the LotR-fan heavy music listeners tend to be (as far as I know) the ones who don't particularly listen to the bands you mentions, though I don't know; clothing style does not always tell all kind of bands the person listens to.

Okay, so you're just stating that many Tolkien-lovers that you know have extended education and nothing more (i.e. have high IQs or something). Is that because many people you know have degrees or are students, or of the group that you hang out with, those with degrees/are students like Tolkien? See the difference? Not that I'm asking you to do a study or provide scientific results or something, but just want to note the difference.

I can see the difference, but I'm still inclined to think so. If I'm not mistaken, most Finnish Tolkien society guys and 'downers (???) have an academic background. Besides, I'm probably not hanging on academic groups; I'm still doing my compulsory education...
