Well- I liked Bombadil, so he shouldn't be cut out, though I really enjoy making fun of the "merry dol" type things...

I think you should have been allowed to fantacize on that part. But then again, if we had, I would probably be wishing that Tolkien had written more about what happened to them. I don't have a problem with any other part of the appendices.
