No, it isn't. It is about whether certain words were "borrowed" by certain authors from others and whether this can be called stealing. The thread name is in my opinion not at all suggestive of the idea that this is a favourite characters thread.

About Birnam Wood (that's B-I-R-N-A-M, Airerūthiel [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ), well in Mac-I mean the Scottish Play the trees didn't actually move. It was soldiers with a few branches over their heads, for camouflage. Like in films where people go under bushes which then move. This, in my opinon, is not where Ents come from, it is in no way similar! The flms with moving bushes, well that is another story.
