   A reading of rights to TLotR would probably include material   
   from Appendices A and B,which cover thousands of years,   
   without going into anything that Tolkien made no mention of   
   at all.   
      
   I would hope they'd restrain their inventions to stick   
   within what we've been told.   
      
   But the less they do,the better....

   The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,   
   at least as tall as before...or terror has triumphed.
