Do you want to start a Tolkien thread?

Gary — 11/5/2004 6:40:26 AM (archived)

LJ,

I'm a Tolkien fanatic and would love to start a thread on this subject. However doing it inside this thread on Andrew Sullivan is probably not the best place.

We could start the Tolkien thread here and if enough people climb on board, we could then shift it over to "Off-Topic". --or-- We could start it over on "Off-Topic" and hope others will jump in (not likely). Also we can let it go if you're not interested.
