You know, looking back on it, that incident was
creepy. I was seventeen at the time, and really didn't know better than to nod and smile and go back my book. But, in hindsight... people sometimes think that just because they share a certain interest with someone, they can approach them and talk all sorts of nonsense.
Although kids speaking Elvish - that's always cute. I hope they don't give up on it now, after the movie-mania has worn off.
