bzarcher....so Christopher Lee isn't just one of the most badassly skilled actors of stage and screen. And he's not just one of the smartest men alive. And he's not just one of the 20-odd people in the world who's fluent in ALL of the Tolkien Elvish languages.
He's also a decorated vetran of the British Special Air Service and fought in WWII.
And I thought that Samuel L. Jackson was a badass. Wow.

If we're really gonna have whackos making clones left and right, I really hope someone freezes a few samples of Mssr. Lee's DNA. The world could use a few of him, now an then.
