O'Boile has just left Hobbiton.

obloquy, while it is certainly possibe to interprit the quote ('I am Gandalf, Gandalf the white, but black is mightier still') about black being stronger than white as based of forces, and not individually, I disagree. Gandalf is clearly talking about himself with the white portion of statement. (I am Gandalf... the key word is I) I would think that since he is comparing himself to something, then it would be something that is similar, not one person vs. an entire nation.
