I know you're out there! You know who you are. Anyway, my dwarf fanatic, I thought you might want to know this. Remember how you complained to me that people can't spell the plural for dwarf right? Well, there is actually another spelling, the Old English spelling, dwarrows. Tolkien said he regretted not using the correct spelling, but by that time it was too late.
