Indeed. For them, hell is a white screen of doom.

Also, as there was a split in the Presbyterian church in Canada, so there could be a sub-set of Tolkien fans who call themselves Presbytolkians, who argue over whether Tolkien should be read to children or whether children should read him themselves.

EDIT: Look at that! Not only did I cross post with Big al, but our posts are timed the same. He must have beat me by a few seconds. But hey, this isn't an Olypic sport!

But the quandry: do I answer him here, or double post? Or does he double post and correct my fractionating?

Maybe the posts were alphabetized. And 'al' beats' be' in that race.

I don't think that any number of posts can correct what's fractured with a certain poster - not that I haven't tried...

But now that I've posted, feel free to post a reply to my earlier post (unless you're posting right now).
