Well hey, I know this is the Land of Hobbits, but it seems some of the inhabitants really believe in fairy stories. We are told of spirits guiding waterways, mountains that fell in and out of love, owning the sea etc. How educated people in positions of power can stand in front of TV cameras and spurt these cloud cuckoo land stories beggars belief.
I thought I had come to live in a beautiful, well developed, modern, society. After all folks it is 2012, not the 1800s. Get used to it and as the correct Treaty says, one people, we should all work together for the benefit of all, not the few.
