Battle for Middle-earth Place
Excerpts from a September T.A. 2003 meeting of the Commission for Historical and Architectural Preservation of Middle-earth (CHAP-ME). Present: hobbits, dwarfs, elves, trolls, wizards, supreme beings, and others. Meeting in progress...
GOLLUM: I would like to mention--
GALADRIEL: Would you like to give us your name?
GOLLUM: --in the Project for Public Spaces report--
GALADRIEL: Excuse me. Could you give us your name, please?
Later on...
BOROMIR: Is there some way we can get that [cable near the Tolkien monument] taken out of this plan?
CONSULTANT: The monument?
GRIMA: Take that one, Sauron?
SAURON: Not today.
GRIMA: We agree with you. It's ugly. We don't have a plan yet. It's multi-agency.
Later on...
GALADRIEL: Commissioners, while I don't mean to stop the discussion here, I do want to ask if there's anyone from the neighborhood that wishes to speak.
GOLLUM: I think we said what we need to say.
GALADRIEL: Thank you. All right, Commissioners. Any further questions of anybody?
CONSULTANT: I think we just wanted to point out that we had been having meetings with the Friends and with the neighborhood [huh?!] and that they were very supportive [huh?!] and this is really a partnership process.
GOLLUM: Yes.
Later on...
GALADRIEL: ...Well, now we've got some things we have to do. And, our goal here tonight for this project, and I believe you have the staff report with the recommendation on page two. If there be, if there are no further questions, then I would entertain a motion for this presentation.
BILBO BAGGINS: We only received the north and the east improvements and, so, I mean, I guess somehow we do need a record for the south and west plans.
GRIMA: We have the preliminary report which has everything in it. We can leave a draft with Eowyn and when we get the final, we will give her a copy of that as well. It hasn't been proofed properly yet so there's some typos.
GALADRIEL: We weren't sure. I believe what Mr. Baggins is concerned about is that our documentation that we got only talked about the north and east.
Hmmmm. No documentation on the south and west parks was presented at the CHAP-ME hearing? Well, isn't that interesting...
And, if you're wondering why there are huh?!s in the testimony, it's because Grima and the Consultant didn't present in front of the Middle-earth Association's Architectural Review Committee until February T.A. 2004!
