From: Ruscosenda (Original Message) Sent: 7/1/2003 7:22 PM Stormrider and Annie, I just wanted to express my sincere appreciation for all the hard work you "guys" put into the ROTK study. It obviously took a lot of time and effort to generate all of those summaries, study questions, and quizes(grumble, grumble). Thank you for making this a valuable and fun learning experience for us all. -- Rusco p.s. What's the next study on the schedule?

From: sparrow Sent: 7/1/2003 10:31 PM Hear, hear! or is it: Here, here! ? In any case, I will raise my glass to Rusco's sentiments. Stormy, Annie, your work on this study continues to blow me away! Thank you for putting so much time, effort, thought and creativity into this project. I am still enjoying the fruits of your labor, and I have something to add to a few threads, but I have been delayed by a happy enounter with the stork. Coming soon: Chronology of Middle Earth Study. Start reading those Unfinished Tales, Histories of Middle Earth, etc. Best regards, Sparrow * * * From: rivers Sent: 7/2/2003 6:15 AM Bravo !! Bravo!! Ole' and Touche' and every other cool thing you can think of to say. Really great job! I have only just began at the end as usual but you guys came up with some good thought inducing questions. I was slightly dissappointed there wasn't a month long in-depth study of Frodo the Hero by himself and a daily snippet of his wonderful advice to the world.Nah just kiddin you two women kick ass and take names so before you get any ideas my name is Rivers. Thank you for teaching me it is wonderful to learn. * * * From: Soleil Sent: 7/2/2003 3:14 PM Congratulations, and a multitude of thanks to the both of you for giving so selflessly of yourselves to bring this incredible study to life, and to encourage the growth of each of us! Now...take a nice, long, well-earned rest and we'll look for you before the snow flies! Sol * * * From: jerseyshore Sent: 7/2/2003 6:25 PM Loved the pictures, the quizzes, all the great things you came up with! Even though I don't post much, I read everything and think about the discussions. I learn so much from you all! * * * From: Merlin the mad Sent: 7/2/2003 9:14 PM Thank you for a high quality experience (which is still ongoing: there was far too much for me to delve into at once) I too enjoyed the pictures you provided with each discussion.

Fang * * * From: Storrmrider Sent: 7/5/2003 9:00 AM I am very pleased that everyone has enjoyed this study. It was a pleasure to prepare for you! I want to especially thank my Partner, Annie. I am so glad that she offered to join me in this adventure. Anyway, I am going to take a short break and enjoy some of the summertime, but I plan to come back soon and reply to some of the posts that you all have left on the study threads. There are many questions that I still want answered and I think between all of us, we might come up with the answers! lol Stormrider

From: Majahsheart Sent: 7/7/2003 8:49 AM i want to add my congratulations on a fine study the "Study goddesses"! i also thank all of you who participated. i learn so much from all your posts that i am awed about the knowledge you all have. i can spout to my heart's content on my thoughts in chat or an IM (right sparrow?) but i can't seem to commit to posting those thoughts. perhaps one day i will be as confident as all of you? and yes Storm and Annie, thanks for the pictures too...that was a beautiful touch! Majah * * * From: Illadria Sent: 7/7/2003 10:54 AM Thank You , Thank You, Thank You Stormrider and Annie! Though my participation has been scarce, scant, and scarely weak , I have thoroughly enjoyed this study. With each new post, I was eager to see what you had prepared next! And Rusco...Thank you for reminding us all of the difficult and often thankless work of our generous and dedicated study leaders. Not just Stormrider and Annie, but the studyleaders of the past, as well... DA, Zauber, Algy, Rivers. Thank you all for all you do. ( I hope I haven't left anyone out) Majah, and all of you other "shy" folks. Please, don't hesitate to add your thoughts. I'd love to see it, and so would everyone else. I know all of you have way better things to say than I do...so if I can post - you can too! ~Illy * * * From: CamelliaD Sent: 7/7/2003 9:57 PM "Study Goddesses" was perfect Majah! I'm joining in to thank you for the quizzes that I thought were easy, till I looked up answers! ( I couldn't get it to take my answers, remember?) so I printed them up, answered, then checked answers myself. I guess I've read a different book all these times over 30 yrs. Well, with your help, I'll do it till I get it right! Thanks again.Love, Camellia Danderfluff * * * From: Galenas_ Sent: 7/9/2003 10:26 PM Stormrider and Annie, You guys are the bomb! Thank you for all your hard work. What an enlightening time this has been for me. Thanks also to all you who participated and gave of your wealth of knowledge and creativity. hannad mellyn nin (thanks my friends!) * * * From: Hilary Sent: 7/28/2003 9:51 AM Although real life obligations kept me from participating as I would have liked, I'm just blown away by the extraordinary study Stormrider and Annie put together for us. The illustrations were marvelous, and the quizzes are a fun reinforcement of the knowledge we gain from your efforts. Of course, Illadria is quite right to point out that ALL of our study leaders have done exemplary work in helping us all to learn more about Middle Earth, and Professor T's other works. This kind of love and dedication is what makes this site unique; not to mention the members who bring outlooks and experiences from around the globe. Thanks again! Hilary * * * From: Redha Sent: 7/28/2003 12:20 PM Annie and Stormrider, I cannot express it better that Hilary. You guys...wow... I am not fiinish with this study. I hope there will be others who will come back to it and add comments and notes. Many of the questions you asked deserve more thought. Thank you again. Redha * * * From: Kendal Sent: 7/28/2003 10:37 PM Just echoing all the previous hearty thanks -- Stormrider and Annie: GREAT WORK! There are so many intriguing topics laid out here that I'll be adding -- in dribblet fashion -- my several 2 cent worths for a goodly while to come! Your efforts are really appreciated!
