Re: the debate turns canonical

Greetings Aiwendil, welcome to the Downs and our Project.

There were several big points raised and while I have already expressed a few opinions buried within the major thread of which this is just a tail end [see the aragorn's ancestor's in the books thread] I have4 found that I need to chew on ideas and ponder their ramifications to the whole canon before jumping to anyconclusions.
I am intrigued by Tar elenion's conception of retaining both the MR version and incorporating the majority of the Shibboleth.I am afraid I don't have time to elaborate more on my current thoughts but in the next few days I hope to put up an amendment to my 'unofficial outline'. There are already alot of ideas up in that thread[see the 4.<img src=alien.gif ALT="0]"> and I would love to hear your thoughts.
