Imagine insuring an Oliphaunt anyway! I suppose you wouldn't have to worry about Fire and Theft...

I think Kronos was right with the whole opposite to black thing. Or maybe Tolkien got himself all muddled as to who knew what about who? Thats unlikely as the publishers probably had an army of monkeys chained to desks trained to check for any discrepancies in the text.
