Tolkien

Right, Finwe. Changing even the slightest thing in the most obscure way could eventually make the books quite different than what they are today. Would that difference be for the better or for the worse? I can only speculate that it would be for the worse, because the way the dear Professor had meticulously written it is the way he wanted it, and ultimately I think the author knows what is best for his books, whether or not his audience accepts it. The books were good in his eyes, and they were one of the joys of his heart. Again, these are only my opinions, and they are meant in respect to all other opinions.
Peace
