Btw, there is a post editing function, in case you wish to add anything to your post.
Touche. But I plea this excuse - that is what I mean by out of the box.
No disrespect meant to Capt. John. Don't try to share your cup of bitterness with him, for I poured it for you alone and you well know that. And . . . . .
Anyway I say that Tolkien was a vessel, a conduit, if you will, just like myself, and I believe that those were his own opinions
[I am stepping out of character so the following comments MAY NOT be used against me]
and made of his own volition, in a moment of individual discretion, and not while at the task of reporting the evolving vision. Which came from Eru the Hallowed.


Under your line of reasoning, flawed, obviously, to anyone of intelligence (change your name to Pippin, boy) Tolkien also composed the quite contradictory Qoutes I took about the perceptions of Melkor and Sauron. So I am absolutely right, and that some set of cognitive guidelines must be used to establish a system for catagorizing all Tolkien related information. I have done this, since no one else seems to, and you give as must weight to a misqoute from 'Letters' as you do to a direct qoute from the Lord of the Rings, etc. SEE! define the cognitive system FOR YOURSELF of defining what exactly "etc." signifies.
