It is tangential to this website, but not tangential to who I am, so please forgive me for speaking out mz bitterness and pain: Richard Wright, musician, member of Pink Floyd, the group I esteem highest, has died.
I know he will play his rich, haunting layers of organ and gentle, mellifluous piano on the slopes of Taniquetil from now on.

This may be of interest to many - sadly I lack the funds to purchase this:

How do you say in Quenya "Bloody spammers are trying to register on the site day after day and I must delete 3-4 newly registered bots every morning."?

I guess this is an interesting information from the lambengolmor list:

Kenilyes? I kala, ilúveo fana, sinta,
laire kaita kemenna ve quákoquesse;
sanwenyar, thenne, tére ve atta na atta
nostar néke emmar i morniesse.

I ringa roquen úva, víla i vailerokko,
vamme - quetimme, mal ua, ua lasta;
patamme yuo, úpe, túrina yo turindo,
sára i lamba, i lúme lipta, arta, arta;

Quéla i líkuma; lóremmaron yonde
nique yo nimpa, helka Follondie,
ar yas málya kestan, eremelda, ere
olla i oronti hosta i hísie.

Tá, er pa er, i éli sintaner.
