	Twin Towers 2 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Twin Towers 2, now renamed WTC Towers Memorial [1] [2], is a design by structural engineer Kenneth Gardner and architect Herbert Belton (deceased) to rebuild New York City's World Trade Center site, which was destroyed by the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
		The WTC Towers Memorial plan is preferred by the majority of victims' families and has been preferred in all public opinion polls.
		Other WTC Towers Memorial supporters are driven by a desire to rebuild what they see as an iconic symbol of New York and America in recognizable form, and to demonstrate resiliency and the futility of terrorist attacks.

		WTC 2 (the south tower) was nearly as tall, with a roof height of 1,362 feet.
		The fact that the towers collapsed in about 10 seconds is a statement that the upper portion of each of the towers passed through the lower portion at about the same rate that it would have fallen through air.
		The ability of the two towers to withstand aircraft impacts without immediate collapse was a direct function of their design and construction characteristics, as was the vulnerability of the two towers to collapse a result of the combined effects of the impacts and ensuing fires.

	Problem B - The Twin Towers
		The order of the tiles in the new towers must remain the same as they were in the original towers.
		Now, about two thousand years later, you are challenged with an even simpler problem: given the descriptions of two dissimilar towers you are asked only to find out the number of tiles in the highest twin towers that can be built from them.
		For each pair of towers in the input first output the twin tower number followed by the number of tiles (in one tower) in the highest possible twin towers that can be built from them.

		Although he was willing to build the tower, he was too poor to bear the cost of maintenance, and intended to fund the project by collecting from ships that passed the point any voluntary contributions that the owners might offer him.
		This caused such an uproar from the shipowners that the patent was withdrawn, the light extinguished and the tower demolished.
		The building was completed in 1751, and consisted of two towers, with a cottage built between them, in which an overlooker lay on a sort of couch, with a window on either side commanding a view of the lanterns.

		The two towers were unable to survive the effects of a direct hit by two hijacked commercial jetliners during terrorist attacks on the morning of September 11, 2001.

		Oh, the south tower ice is officially 41 feet high, just in case we decide to leave it there for lack of financial where-with-all to buy more plastic water line and insulation, and in case you were among those who were, ah, guessing its final height.
		Therefore, 40 feet of pipe in the south tower, and 45 feet in the north tower.
		Added spotlights, shining on the towers from the parking area, so the towers at night are as impressive as in the day, and perhaps a bit more mysterious, especially with the odd shaped tracks through the snow in the trees, going up and into the icicle maze of the north tower.
