You are a trip. There was no "gratuitous insult", you took the discussion off the beaten path. What you were saying was "neither here nor there" with what I was discussing previously: the topic being the Rings of Power being unseen by those who themselves were not Ringbearers. In your haste to be contrary (because attempting to prove me wrong seems to be your current avocation), you decided to throw out a quote from unpublished material that was contrary to published material. I had to waste time finding the appropriate quotes in hopes of going back to the original discussion. Alas, the effort was for naught!

My, how tedious. Perhaps I should quote extemperaneously from unedited material to bolster my suppositions.

Using the term "fan fiction" certainly will gain you admirers in a debate. I'll remember that next time you whine about insults.
