   Disturbing to hear that the UK's longstanding Tolkien Society   
   has decided to embrace modernistic mentalities anathema to the   
   traditionalist ethos the reverent reader should imbibe from the   
   Arda canon.

   The extreme charisma of the stories has drawn admiration from   
   quarters far from deserving of admiration for a long time (drug   
   culture types in the 1960s etc.) but if you want to be mainstream,   
   you need to be attuned to "touching your cap to Squire" and being   
   grateful for order and restored tradition.   
      
   Readers need refuge from,not repetition of,the "queer",the "trans",   
   and other egotisms of our own world and time.

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