Gimli?
The non-Euclidean newshounds over at Fortean Times --your one-stop source for UFO sightings, organic skyfalls and other bizarre fringe-science items--note that today is the feast of "St. Cronaprava, the apocryphal patron saint of dwarves," without elaborating on who, what, when, where, why or what the heck. Dwarves already have a patron saint anyway, St. John the Short. Usually, FT tends to get things like saint's days more-or-less straight, barring their occasional editorializing, so this really, really puzzles me, since I can't find any references to her (him?) elsewhere on the 'Net. Can anyone shed light on this subject?
