Gandalf is a fraud?!

Also, this guy needs to learn how to spell Cirdan and Thraundil.

Careful there. Thought that it was spelled Thranduil. And though I too see spelling errors and grammatical pretzels as icky, I've learned that for some, writing in this tongue that I should know better than I do may be a very impressive feat in itself.

And Welcome! Lord Tataraus. Hope to read your, and not others, opinions soon.

Ahem...better manners and arguments make the Downs a better place. (alatar goes to look up a better word than 'better.')
