Good point! I think that Gandalf meant his own promptings, though, not the Ring's.

Oh yes! You are right. . I went back and re-read that part. Gandalf said that the ring left Gollum at its own will. But Bilbo was the person to cast it aside. Thank you for pointing it out. This act of Bilbo's just makes you love the hobbits even more, doesn't it?"

You're very welcome. There's nothing better than pointing at other people's mistakes. [/kidding. I also mix up little details like that.]

It makes me love Bilbo, Gandalf, and hobbits in general even more, as you said.
