I can't pretend to have remembered this. It's just that I was trying to clean up some of the older threads and tripped over the answer there. Not that I won't take the credit...<img src=smile.gif ALT=" ![]() </p> |

But the hobbitish Kali meant happy, cheerful....so JRRT came up with Merry, short for Meriadoc. What a clever Professor.
