Well that's the final evidence I need to completely do away with this character -- if his "balrogs" are riding dragons I can only assume that they are wingless. A wingless balrog!!!!!!!!!!!! I've never heard of anything that so utterly disregards the master vision of PJ.
Excuse me, Mister Tolkien, but if you look very closely at the balrog -- or even just look at him -- you'll see that those aren't shadows but wings!
How can anyone be so stupid???????
