Sorry, I know it's an old thread...
but, I would like to point out that some people make elves sound ditzy and stupid... like for instance, Santa's elves, and they're short too. It's saddening really.

Well, that's exactly the thing Tolkien was "battling" with. I would recommend you, if you haven't done so already, to read Tolkien's essay "On Fairy Stories"; he elaborates on similar topic right at the beginning.
