Naaaaaah...Legolas was fair-haired. Besides, I think he was Sinudrin (sp? Sinudran? It's late). Like father, like son. The only remark ever made about his hair was when he's aiming at the Black Rider in the sky when they're on the river-banks after being in Lórien. It says that it shone dark in the moonlight...which must mean that it was dark then versus how light it was in day. That cracked me up about even Tolkien not knowing. I mean, if he doesn't know, then we are really screwed, aren't we? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
I tend to disagree that Bombadil was JRR. It doesn't seem as if he would put himself in such role. I've always thought he was Samwise. I love Sam! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
