i have....and many more besides.....im kind of a tolkien scholar/nut. although ive never found any information on the origin of orcs(ie: who came up with the idea....i know tolkeins history of them). now givin the fact that i have read so much of tolkien and about tolkien, i think i would have heard something about him being the first one to come up with the idea....but i havent.....which is why i doubt it so much.
edit: saurons boss.....morgoth.

I dream about how it's going to end,
Approaching me quickly.
Leaving a life of fear,
I only want my mind to be clear.

No, I was just overcome by the thought of Bowie as the Goblin King. Besides, you don't hear many Labyrinth references these days...
...and now you've made me post another pointless entry. Not that it matters...I'm fairly sure my ratio of pointless to pointful (?) is still more reasonable than most here. 
Now excuse me while I dance magic dance...
