It's beyond hatred, he has gone as far as forcing siblings off the board of directors of the Tolkein Estate that disagree with him. He guards what he sees as the integrity of the books with more religious zeal then any Ayatollah railing against Israel. The man is total fruit cake [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hopefully once he pass on (he's in his 70's now) more rational heads will prevail and at least allow Peter Jackson to pull what is left of the LOTR props and sets out of mothballs to make a museum in NZ.
