Welcome to the Downs, Lord and Scapegoat. You know, we could use more Scapegoats around here. Have worn out the ones we have. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Based on the Moria context, trying to shut the door against the Balrog, then it opening, Gandalf's word of Command to shut it, then his statement: "the counterspell was terrible!" I'd have to say you can only counterspell a spell. The word of Command was wizardry. Boromir spoke of ordinary command.
