Continuity errors in Tolkien - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Yes. But I'll be nice and not repeat them here. Okay, maybe one.

I love that moment in The Simpsons when the folk of Springfield are crowded around Alec Baldwin's mansion, and Comic Book Guy has this big folder with him. He says "Alec, Alec! I have compiled a list of technical errors from The Hunt for Red October which I think you'd enjoy discussing!"

I think I can live with that particular continuity error. But I am quite impressed that you worked that out! I hope it didn't stick out too much when you were reading the book; it's a shame if one detail like that could affect a great chapter. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
