Yes definitely read both lotr and wot many times =) I had no idea amazon was coming out with a wheel of time series! thats crazy. I might have to reread it, its been probably 20 years...

Definitely dig dune, my favorite authors were Asimov and Heinlein, but I find there is a lot more variety in the scifi genre than fantasy. Though I haven't been reading nonfiction for a while now. I've gotten so boring ;)
