[Scott]

Right Rynoah, both races were seen by Iluvatar as His children (the dwarves were the oops children, which may be disheartening to some).

I think that since the mythology was supposed to be a history before history, men are set up to be the same. Obviously Tolkien would have had them been a little different since all things change with time. But maybe the fact that they really only changed their ways and habits very little was a point he was trying to make (like, look how far we haven't come after all of this time).

And, by the way, like women, Elves don't sweat, they either perspire or glisten. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
