Me, too, though nothing I've read comes close to "Percy on rye."  
Yes, keep these!

Anne:

They're all in a file in the Files section of the main list.  I 
don't remember if they're in a post.

BTW, IIRC, the list (or lists, rather, as there's more than one 
variant) that Anne quoted was a unique subset of the Rock-Solid 
Predictions in which one poster *predicted* that JKR would continue 
using the same language to describe particular characters' actions 
(e.g., "Snape will snap").  I always thought it was a humorous 
commentary on JKR's narrative style, but there are over 100 posts 
where people kept adding additional examples.

I'd vote to keep only the first one (to give proper credit to the 
original poster) and the complete list, both coded to predictions 
and narrative style.
