Your Daily Tolkien Ping!

Coming from many sources, these articles cover many aspects of Tolkien and his literary works. If anyone would like for me to ping them directly when I post articles such as this let me know. Enjoy!

Did you guys see this article? It's kinda technical but interesting and I wondered if you have any thoughts. I don't like this guy's final conclusion, that the myths (Sun, Moon, Earendil, and the 'Breaking') should not be included. After all, the Valar are supposed to be gods, or at least demigods. If they can't do something like create the Sun out of a fruit, who can?

He wants to take out some of the most beautiful stuff, for the sake of 'consistency'. Leave well enough alone, I say.
