IMO, it is unexplainable and a good question. I have yet to see anyone answer this contradiction properly, on any board that I have visited.

In Letters of Tolkien, Tolkien says that though lost from him, Sauron was always in report with the Ring and &quot;could draw from it&quot;. This is contradicted by what is in the LoTR, but it does validate the original thread starters question a lot.

I do not know why he was unaware of it and I suspect the Prof from making a slip-up <img src=wink.gif ALT="">
