davem would never post:

The really good idea would be to extend Rev Silm and start up "Revised Tolkien" project. I mean, we should dig up all pieces Tolkien ever wrote, including his market lists and bakery bills, and create one coherent piece of text out of it. The plot will develop first in South Africa, and will include such Aelfwine traveling from Capetown with Rover to the Moon, with Master Cook on the steer, and it will give what I'd like to call "true Tolkien" idea to masses. We will be having two aims in mind - first, to bring as much of Tolkien's writing into one piece of a text as possible, and, secondly, we should make it as life-like, real, according to the laws of our primary world as it ever may be achieved. So the mechanical monsters of Morgoth should be interpreted as rockets (othewise, how would Rover get to the Moonm and so forth.

Once the work is done, all other books now in circulation should be banned, and our Revised Tolkien piece should be proclaimed the one and only canon!
