Subject: Who knows the Two Towers?
Anyone recall the names of the two towers referred to in Tolkien's book? I think it's Orthanc in Isengard and Minas Tirith in Mordor, but there are other towers in the book... ???

I always assumed it was Minas Morgul and Minas Tirith - the ones which faced each other at the entrances to Mordor and Gondor (with Ithilen the bit in the middle)
...having said that, it could be Isengard and Barad Dur...
