I do not agree. You must remember that Gollum could take down goblins <I>when he had the ring</I>. He meets Sam and Frodo afrter nearly 80 years of being parted from it. (I hope my chronology is right - Bilbo had it for 60 years, and Frodo for 18.) This would have made him very weak. I mean think about it, his entire life-force was in the ring, and without it he was a 580+ year old Hobbit. Who would win in a fight, two relatively middle-aged Hobbitsd, or one ancient one? <P>Welcome to the 'Downs!
