D'ya know who introduced me to Tolkien Sbf? A vice-president of a company where I worked. We'd chat from time to time about different things and one day he showed up at my desk and handed me a book. Guess which book? At different work functions we hit it off and his wife was a jewel whom I really liked a lot so I guess they wanted me to visit that fantasy world.We kept in touch after I left the company and one day he and his wife were visiting in Ogunquit, Maine having traveled there from California for a visit and we drove up to spend some time with them. We had moved to Massachusetts and were living in east Acton at that time. Sad thing is I do not remember his name.It was about 50 years ago! I can picture him but his name is gone or buried deep inside my head! So you like fantasy worlds and languages then? Excellent choice. Like a beautiful tapestry of infinite beauty which never loses its appeal. I think J.K Rowling did it with Harry Potter too. Thank you for your reply Sbf! :)
