User blog comment:Gott wisst/Hypothesis about why B. J. is wrong about J. R. R. Tolkien/@comment-1134624-20090524085617

Oh please. Anyway, JRRT and CSL were both friends apparently. Let's just say that JRRT was a good storyteller; and he took existing myths and sort of turning them into new ones. I think Hobbits were a new idea. BJ is right about his own book though, but JRRT didn't exactly plunder mythology. Hmmmm... Brina? Nice typo, thanks, I'm gonna make Brina a character in SQ.
