*hides his MERP books?*

Well, my family introduced me to Tolkien and that was like twenty years ago, when I was a child -- and he still catches me the same (or more even). But I have roleplayed a lot when I lived at home, and still does by post or email and enjoy it a lot.

I am more a First Age-lover than Third Age's, though. Having read all the published works (some of them more times than others) I'm very book-verse, so feel free to start any discussion if you get the fancy and I would join it

You can start the same a discussion about the movies but, how to tell you, even if I liked them (as movies!), you would find pretty soon that I might lead the APJS (Anti-Peter Jackson's M Society) (j/k)
