I think all I had to say about this topic pretty have been said already, so I'm not going to repeat everybody else, but there's just something I would like to comment.

If Gandalf had been among them at that time I'm sure Shelob would have been dealt with.

I completely agree, but I find it weird, that it always has to be Gandalf who has to get things done. People of Gondor couldn't see the reason for dealing with Shelob, but one of their own should have been as good to push them as Gandalf. At least if they didn't know about his "wizardry". If the public attitude was like "He's a wizard, he can make it happen", then he could be useful. I can't remember, wether Gondor still had a king by that time, but if they had one, and a good one, couldn't he as well realize what it would take to get rid of Shelob?
I'm sorry if I didn't put this clearly enough, but I hopr you get my point! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
