zifnab, very amusing!

deal_with_it I do not mean to be rude and I apologise if my post comes across as such but you seem to be dwelling in a realm where everything must have a 'what if?'

Indeed there are many 'if's',

"'Very well, very well, Master Elrond!' said Bilbo suddenly. 'Say no more! It is plain enough what you are pointing at. Bilbo the silly hobbit started this affair, and Bilbo had better finish it, or himself." - Chapter 2 Council of Elrond, Book II

Bilbo instead of Frodo...

It seems to me that these 'what if's' are far less exciting than the real story!
