Hahaha, you are correct Mithadan, everyone, even myself, gets a little worked up about Balrogs sometimes. I think its because one of them killed Gandalf, and everyone really likes Gandalf. We all have very strong opionons about something strong enough to take down one of our favorite characters. I highly suggest reading the bye bye Balrogs thread in the knew Silm project, it has much more convincing and interesting arguments than I could put forth.
