MEPBM - riddle answer From: Patrick F. McGehearty <patrick@convex.COM> Date: Mon, 26 Jun 1995 00:00:00 +0000 I earlier asked for suggestions to the following riddle after Smeagol failed to work. A number of people suggested Gollum. I put off trying it, figuring that it has no chance, since Smeagol is Gollum's true name. A gentle being made mad by ancient power From the sun did he cravenly cower. A miserable life of full of fearful loss An extended life, but at what cost? Following them, ever did follow he Til he found a peaceful end to his long misery. After trying Hurin and Turin, I finally tried Gollum, being out of other ideas. Guess what? It worked. Of course, I would not call falling into the Cracks of Doom a peaceful end, but whatever works... - Patrick McGehearty patrick@convex.com Referenced By Up
