Ent - Wikipedia

Ents are a race of beings in J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy world Middle-earth who closely resemble trees. They are similar to the talking trees in folklore around the world. Their name is derived from the Anglo-Saxon word for giant.

In the Tolkien stories the ents are very old beings, and they are among the heroes fighting against evil at a critical time in the story. I thought they were awesomely represented in the Two Towers movie.

Sorry if that is too geeky.

The ents won’t fight until they see the consequences evIl has for their own friends. Once they realize the things they personally care about have been destroyed they annihilate the the evil Perpetrators.

FReepers who are resistant to Q could still be stirred into action if we make our comments revolve around ther issues on other threads.
