[HPFGU-Catalogue] Dormice/ESE!/DBase/Ginger the slasher/perpetrating mistakes

[Ginger]

Carolyn:
An interesting thesis. Other researchers, such as Kneasy et al. 
(2003, 2004) have also pointed to a change in global list environment 
threatening their habitat. However, some species (particularly those 
exhibiting tannin-stained molars), have evolved a highly-unusual 
defensive strategy through association with larger mammals such as 
canus lupus. As far as can be determined, humans intent on 
eradicating the litter of papers generated by dormice nests quickly 
become prey for the larger scavenger. Recent sightings of canus lupus 
in the wastelands of YAHOO primary coll. may indicate re-emergence of 
the species, as it scents new canon in the air.


Ginger attempts a translation:

Kneasy quit cuz sum uv us'ns are kinda dum, 'n' Pip ain't been heared from much cuza that too, but Grey Wolf done wrote a few posts, and that's cool.

Carolyn:
Really, no apologies needed...the question is, do we now have 
permission to reject almost anything else on the subject?? & does 
Amanda breed these things under her porch?? Or just thwack 'em? Good 
training for being an HPfGU mod, either way.

Ginger:  I would think that anything debating what JKR has said should be pretty darn interesting and well-thought out if we are going to add it to the category.  Anyone finding a canon point that would discredit JRK's statements would be fine, but personal opinion has been done to death to the point that the carcass is filing for overtime pay.  Even the vultures are bored with it.

The same can go for any mention of Bill's penfriend from Brazil.  He's there.  We know it.  Enough.

I'd say, in short, unless new canon or a new find in canon brings on any reason, this subject is generally as full as it gets.  It may not hurt to browse a few posts if you are tempted to add to it.  

Carolyn:
Another heroic job.. and the math is a bit like working out how old 
you are. You have to remember to include the 12 months between being 
born and being 1 year old...at least I do, on the nasty occasions 
when I have to own up.


Ginger: (blushes at the thanks):  I have no trouble remembering how old I am.  The first Superbowl was played when I was 7 months old, so in any given year, I turn whatever number the Superbowl was.

Carolyn:
Yes, we've had this discussion a few times now. It is hard to be 
definitive. I always chuck things based on wrong canon, like the 
idiot I found the other day who was insisting it was the basilisk 
that killed Tom Riddle's parents, not Tom. 

Ginger, blushing deeper:

Erm, that's the thread I had in mind when I asked the question.  I kept posts that noted the canonical similarities between basilisk death and AK death.  I kept some of the beginning statements, and chucked the back and forth 'snot-'stoo.  I rejected the point where I think you may have picked it up, where they were discussing how the basilisk could have gotten from Hogwarts to Little H. through the pipes.  "Could not.  Could too.  They have pipes there.  Duh, but not from Scotland to England.  How else do they get their water?  Duh, seperate lakes."   

Should I go back and whack more?  Or leave it for the person who next reviews basilisk and AK to decide?

Ginger, wondering if she should continue her education.
