That's putting it lightly.
Oh well... there went my complete answer to the Bombadil thing.
I'm not re-posting it.
I'll point out a few of the facts it had...
Melkor left and re-entered Arda several times.
Do you want to count the first acorn (sic) from Arda at the beginning (unformed; and when Melkor and co. entered) or Arda full-wrought (i.e a planet) and before the sleep of Yavanna?
Makes a BIG difference.
Aule\Yavanna connection is sub-creative borrowing from Dragonlance (at least) .
AND it makes NO sense; even on a cursory level examination.
And those were only a few points.
The rest of the post....
Lost in cyberspace.
(Oh... and this new version of EZ-Board SUCKS [self censored])
