I like him too! (for more reasons than you have) He is awfully handy to have around! I wonder if they will ever listen to his premonitions... The dude knows when trouble is coming!

Yes, he has great vision.... He and Gimli become great friends... I would love to see an account of their wanderings post-LOTR (you know, where Gimli was going to show him the great caves of Argothrond or something and Legolas was going to take him to Mirkwood, etc...) Too bad JRR never got around to writing that....

The basic elf-instict to run away when danger approaches. Witness Gildor putting as much distance as he could between him and Frodo when he found out the Black Riders were after the little guy!
