We can ask no more of Frodo," versus "Our list of allies grows thin," etc.

AS if a list could grow thin (unless it previoulsy ran to many pages)vtsk grumble grumble. I have bumped up the main radio discussion thread which was started by Davem and features fascinating insights from Brian Sibley. I must re read it. I am long overdue a re listen but RL got in the way for a while there..
