Fudge and Curse scars/JKR's FAQ

I ran into a thread about the point in GoF where Fudge tells 
Dumbledore "I've (never) heard of a curse scar acting as an alarm 
bell."  

The "never" was in some editions, but not others.  I was 99% sure that 
it ended up being an editing error, and was corrected, so I rejected 
the whole thread.  No one really said anything earthshattering anyway.

I just wanted to double check that it was actually a mistake and not 
something that should have been coded.

For my peace of mind.

Also re JKR's FAQ:  I said earlier that she had painted herself into a 
corner with the prophecy and that there weren't many options.  I have 
now realized that this is the woman who had us thinking there were 
only 2 options for Mrs Figg:  either she was a Muggle or a witch.  We 
know how that turned out.  Hope springs eternal.
