Carolyn:
Can you cross-code for now? When Talisman gets to this one, we can 
decide whether SUCCESS goes under Quirrel or Snape. It can only go 
under one character or another.

Carolyn:
After discussion with Paul, in principle, no. Ie, no need to check 
the main character code as well as an acronym.

*However*, on the new minimilist coding policy, only check George 
and/or Snape if they really are the main subject of the post, rather 
than mentioned in passing.
