Or perhaps, just maybe, Elrond didn't know what he was talking about. Perhaps Manwë was sitting up there on the Mountain, shouting "No, you fools! Don't let the hobbit take it! Send it over here and we'll deal with it!"

It would be just like the elves to take that approach. And it would lend itself to an attack from a murder of crows--everyone knows how crows love shiney things--so that someone else would have to go after the murder before it could fly the Ring back to Fangorn or Dunland . I can see the potential for Radagast to get involved in this story line. If anyone could turn those crebain to the good side, wouldn't it be Radagast?
