Do we live in Middle-earth?

[Elven Mistress]

Okay, well, i'm not sure if i'm off topic, but here i go...

A wise person (also known as my brother) once told me what he believed about books. He said that he believes that authors have some kind of a...power....they can see things that actually happen/happened. I love the idea, i mean, that all the books you've ever read - they really happened! And think about it, it's quite plausible. How do we know that there aren't other worlds out there (or parallel universes as some people mentioned) that these events occured at/in.

So, Middle Earth COULD have existed - whether on "earth", a different world, or a parallel universe, i believe there is some truth to it...
