What would you ask Tolkien?

[Goldberry]

First, I'd ask him if balrogs had wings, since it is an age-old question, after all. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Then I'd ask him about whether trolls had humanlike organs. This wonder came about while re-reading The Hobbit and thinking, for the first time, just how did trolls turn to stone? Did they just become immobilized but still see, hear, and think? Or did they die? That's really the only scientific/technical thing that I wonder about Middle-Earthean (is that a word?) phenomena. So I would ask him those strange questions and then he would think I am odd to wonder such weird things. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
