Well, Tolkien had taken over my head a long time before the films, and I have no doubt this will continue until I take my last breath. How could I tire of Tolkien? There are always new things to be found there, new things to say. I'm thinking of everything I still have to read - and it could keep going a long time. Why would the 'Downs go away? There will always be more fans to be signed up, I'm sure. I might not have been as active the past few days as my mind is rather deeply occupied elsewhere, but I would hate to see the 'Downs in decline! Tis a very special place.
