Thanks for the kind words.

Since I posted, I've been thinking (oh, yes!) and I've had an idea  that is
bound to annoy  the List Elves.

Why not set up our own Prophecy Bank for listers?

If a poster  comes up with a significant new theory or a new slant on an
old one that they are particularly proud of, they can request that it be 
numbered and logged. A bit like the acronyms are at the moment. Or
perhaps give it a prefix as we do for TBAY.

Posters can check the list to see what theories have already been made
on any particular aspect of the  books and could use them as a starting 
point for their own new theories or check to see if the ground has been
covered before and to what depth.

In addition, when the truth finally emerges, we'll have the tremendously
satisfying proof of just what a load of old rubbish has been put up for
consideration in past posts. 

Ah! The humiliation! I didn't say that, did I? Oh, yes you did!

This really appeals to my sadistic instincts and since I'm an inveterate
theoriser myself, I'll probably get my fair share (or more) of brickbats 
when the tale reaches its conclusion.

How about it Elves? Is this possible? I see difficulties with theories
already posted, but if we can get round that....
