1. Is it alive?
(As an aside, could you consider disabling your X-No-Archive header
for the duration of this round of 20 Questions? Some of usread
through Google Groups, and it could cause some problems if your
earlier answers start disappearing before the round is over)

I see two Gandalfs and church bell. And two half lions chasing
a bull rat each over the lake. (Rorschach tests seen by "Illogic")

6. Is it the tree that Frodo hid behind, the first time he, Sam and Pippin
were overtaken by a Black Rider? "Just in time he threw himself down in a
patch of long grass behind a tree that over-shadowed the road."

9. "Not far from the road-meeting they came on the huge hulk of a tree: it
was still alive and had leaves on the small branches that it had put out
round the broken stumps of its long-fallen limbs; but it was hollow, and
could be entered by a great crack on the side away from the road." Is it
that tree?
9b. Do I get kudo points from someone for making verbatim Tolkien quotes
about trees?
<no, scratch that, i didn't mean it as an entry in the question tree>

Longshooting is fun and painless.
If you get it right, you look like a hero.
If you get it wrong, it was only a longshot anyway. :))

The trees I remembered without needing to consult the book. The precise
wording of the quotes, no. Nor is failing to memorize the books
blasphemous, for that would render meaningless the re-reading of them - and
that *would* be bordering on blasphemy, save for those enlightened to such a
degree that blasphemy applies to them like darkness apply to the the maid
Arien.
