Everythings right, including Midge's surmise that IE is hated by S/W engineers .
Though the 'though' in the last sentence is wrong.(I somehow missed it in Val's post yesterday) It's a four letter word , repeatedly used in that quote, and may be a typo. Its 'thou'. BTW vi editor also provides the 'insert anywhere' option. Be warned, its a Linux/Unix thing. DPR next. right? Anyways thanks for all the tips. Ilfirin

Yet it was in the Song. For while thou/_e_t/_n/_h_/h_a_e_s/and with Ulmo built the clouds and/_o_r_d/_u_/the rains, I lifted up the branches of great trees to receive them, and some sang to Ilúvatar amid the/_i_d/_n_/t_e/_a_n/.

wert!
poured out the rains. It sounds like there is a phrase missing between "with Ulmo" and "built the clouds" OR between "in the heavens with" and "Ulmo built the clouds". I'm inclined to think the latter, if it's true.

All correct and nothing is missing.
You're up, Midge.

I would gladly learn how this/c_e_p_n_/Smeagol
became possessed of the thing of which we speak, and how he lost it, but I will not trouble you now. If ever beyond hope you return to the lands of the living and we re-tell our tales, sitting by a wall in the sun, laughing at all grief, you shall tell me then. Until that time, or some other time beyond the vision of the seeing-stones of Numenor, farewell! ~Faramir

Corrections:
"I would gladly learn how this/c_e_p_n_/Smeagol became possessed of the thing of which we speak, and how he lost it, but I will not trouble you now. If ever beyond hope you return to the lands of the living and we re-tell our tales, sitting by a wall in the sun, laughing at/_l_/grief, you shall tell me then. Until that time, or some other time beyond the vision of the seeing-stones of Numenor, farewell!" The speaker was right, too. Good and fast job, DPR!

Creeping and old is right!
Your turn, Val. *As I read that quote in the book, I realized that I really liked it. I like the end, where Faramir says "Until that time, or some other time beyond the vision of the seeing-stones of Numenor, farewell!" The Seeing-stones were sort of like their all-knowing things, but he acknowledges that there is a possibility of times and things that they can't see, or that they won't be around to see. It's very perceptive of him, I think.

I took Katt's advice and tried out the Dvorak Keyboard.. but I don't have time to get used to it. So I have to keep switching back.
tough. softer. thrust. I'll leave the rest. I don't want to post another for a while. TOO MUCH RESPONSIBILITY!!! LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![insert excessive use of exclamation points here that I can't because I have to go to bed sometime]!!!!!!!!!!

Despite the dodging, everything attempted so far is correct.
