All I can say is: Yay! I didn't think it right for me to vote, as I'm not British, but I have been interested as to the results. And now that they're in, I'm very pleased that LOTR has tooped yet another poll. It amazes me how people can think that it's "poor escapist literature", and some think it hardly worthy to call literature. At least the people like it!

I may be wrong, but I suspect that there are at least as many female members of the Downs as males, if not more.

I've wondered about this myself. I think there might actually be more female members than there are males, completely vanquishing the "boy's book" streotype that I used to encounter.
