Re: Too young to vote

I too thought the same thing when I first got here (hey, I'm still in awe of about every person here) I first read the Sil in 7th grade (what a mistake that was, I understood NOTHING) and I 'm just rereading it and it's amazing how much I'm learning from it (it's actually the Only Tolkien book I own, but I make up by spending a large majority of the time i'm in a library in the tolkien section) I'm still hoping to eventually be able to debate about the books as intellegably as some of the others here do. <img src=smile.gif ALT="
