Very nice article! I've heard about its existence from
Marcus. I'm glad it actually got printed.

It's about Tolkien's langs, about the new LotR movie, about
conlangs, about conlanging, and about endangered natlangs.
And it features our very own Matt and Marcus! Does it get
any better?! :)  It's a well-written article, even the ring
inscription seems to be correct.

On a side note, I realized that the Black Speech postposition
_-ishi_ 'in' is very similar to the Georgian postposition _-shi_
with the exact same meaning (which I've spent the evening working
on). Could there be a connection? :)
