On a similar note, last week's Private Eye had a "First Draughts" cartoon that showed JRR Tolkein sitting forlornly in front of a typewriter with a blank sheet of paper in it. In the second panel he slams his fist down on the keyboard in frustration. In the third, he is looking with interest at the string "mrgmff" that has appeared as a result of this. In the last pannel he is merrily typing away "mrgrmff lived in the forest of plthwwmm in the land of ggrgador". Pete
