In anticipation of my fifth death day this coming week, I am laying my current signature to rest and going back to my very first one - to be seen in post #1 of this thread! (Actually, I can't use the first one in its entirety - the Gandalf/Pippin quote is too long, so I have taken only the second part.)

Quote:
Tolkien predicted the Barrow-Downs forum: "...talks a reader might have with other people who have read the tale; they might lead to sharing of pleasure, or to debate on disagreements; and so lead even to a second reading."
This quote describes what I've found in my years on the Downs!
