I like Elven people! They're cool! I think their wonderful order and pointy ears are awesome too. Has anyone considered that Elvish people might have evolved into Perl programmers? LoTR

    Lingua::Tolkien::Quenya anyone?
      Although I voted for "War and Peace" (cuz I am reading it right now), all I have to say to prove my LotR love affair is this: I can write every word you've read so far in several Elvish dialects...<stick tongue out>so there!</stick tongue out>

    "The Colour of Magic" is really not representative of Discworld. Quite a lot of PTerry's books have really good elves, "Lords and Ladies", "The Fifth Elephant" and "The Wee Free Men" to name just a few.

    Of course when I say good I don't mean good

    Yeah, each time I see a program without use strict, use warnings and without checking the return value of open, I think must have been an elf. After all elves are immortal, so they can afford to be careless. For all others, life's too short.

    Elves are smelly characters. They have no use except satisfying the need of AD&D munchkin players.
