No...once again, not flash in the pan, "event of the year" kind of stuff (like the television show or whatever that other stuff you mentioned is [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img] ), not movie "Titanic", not the CB radio craze, not "I'm ok, You're Ok" books, etc., etc., etc. I mean long standing, enduringly "popular" stuff, (for good reason) like LoTRs, The Beatles, Andy Grifith, I LOve Lucy, Van Gogh, Johnny Cash...I hope you understand what I'm trying to communicate here.

I think you're splitting academic hairs when trying to find fault with such well loved/enjoyed books.
