: : The question of whether or not Frodo failed is by no means an : : elementary one, nor one that can be answered simply by "doing : : a little homework.": That was not what I was referring to: It was just that the same : guy posted a series of questions (including this one) in the : newsgroups. It was his homework (literally) and he asked for : our help, without him telling us what it was for. That's all - : I didn't mean to be provocative. I guess it would have helped if you had made that clear. The question in and of itself is certainly well worth discussing, and if I were feeling better I probably would have joined in the thread myself. Even Tolkien quibbled over whether Frodo's failure was a true failure.
