The Science of Middle Earth - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I've been reading threads about the life cyles of elves, how they re-incarnate, female dwarves, and orcs, and it got me thinking about all of the scientific parts of Middle Earth. What were the biological differences between elves and men? Why don't hobbits have facial hair? Where did hobbits come from/ Did they "evolve" from men? What ever happened to the Sea of Helcar? The upprooting of the Isle of Balar: how did Osse do it? Anything that is a mystery of science in Middle Earth... let's discuss it!
