That's interesting! :toothy-grin:
I don't know anyone who knew Lewis, but an English teacher I had in high school said that his great grandfather (I think) went to school with JRR Tolkien. :cool: That's pretty cool.

Wow, did Opie ever talk about Lewis to your grandfather? I wonder why Lewis didn't like him. :think:
