Kalimac, I noticed that too. Who knows, perhaps a few of my distant cousins were extras. (Since I'm Indian, I'm practically related to half the world. )<P>I actually didn't mind that at all. The Easterlings were supposed to be based on Asians, and the Haradrim were supposed to be based on Africans. After all, Tolkien was creating a mythos for England, not the entire world, and certainly not for this race-sensitive world.
