What a strange coincidence, Evisse - I just found that one today while looking for other maps. Look
here for Middle-Earth: 1999! Very funny!
However, Tolkien himself did not consider our time as the Fourth Age, but very likely Seventh Age. I will try to look up references for specifics - one of our own members' name bears witness to this: Child of the 7th Age.
