I agree with Orc also, though the deadline may of passed.
From reading the trilogy it seems as if Orc was the preffered word. If JRRT wanted to change it then the question is not which do we prefer, but do we stick to the traditional and most frequent spelling Orc, or do we use the spelling which was probably to be used most frequently in any 'future' writings that JRRT wished to produce.
Ork sounds sounds too much like a fantasy creature invented to combat the hero's in a 6 year old's favourite book. (Dont anyone say "well my favourite book was LOTR when I was 6".
As for Legolas and Legolust... I prefer Legless.
