Meeting Elves - How would you have coped?

[MatthewM]

Why do you see it fit to jump at such a minor correction? You didn't even answer the question, and it is clear what hewhoarisesinmight meant. I don't understand why people are so quick to correct others on such trivial things.

Anyway, for my part, I will answer the question, and to be honest I don't know how I would react. Placing myself in a position as Boromir was in, for example, I would be somewhat freaked out. If I was a little more aware of the culture, like Aragorn was, I would be more calm. Either way though, I would certainly be in awe of the beauty of their surroundings...and would love a good tale of old.
