Complete LOTR Chronology
Egads, I hope the Tolkien estate doesn't get wind of this, start acting like SCO about Linux, and file a copyright infringement lawsuit against this innocent bit of fun. I spent almost a year in Seattle's federal court fighting their absurd claim that only they can publish a chronology or other reference to LOTR. Faced with the distinct possibility of losing at the summary judgment stage, they settled out-of-court last spring.
If you're interested, Untangling Tolkien, the first book-length (251 page) chronology of LOTR, is out and selling on Amazon.com and elsewhere. You can get more details at http://www.inklingbooks.com/ If someone would like to create useful software with a LOTR theme, I'd be happy to agree to the use of material from the book. Just contact me through the website above. One person has floated the idea for a Shire calendar. If you live near Seattle, you can hear Gimli/John Rhys-Davis speak this Saturday. (Details at www.discovery.org). I'll be at a table signing copies of the book. Good thing I was asked. The tickets are a bit pricey ($30) for my budget. --Mike Perry |
