I'm not sure my psyche can bear membership in one more group, but at 
least let me weigh (!) in to say that I thought Emma's acting was 
wonderful! Have been away from the list for several days, but am 
amazed to think that it could have drawn any substantial criticism. 
That little girl *is* Hermione (and as a grown-up Hermione type, I 
know 'em)!

Now, back to "pitch black at 7 p.m.," I bow before your conscientious 
calculations and confess that unlike my friends in Norrtalje and 
Fairbanks, I have never lived north of the 40th parallel, but there 
are times when even *here,* it is extremely dark at 7 p.m. in the 
winter. Add a cloud cover, and it's headlights-on time for sure. 

Well, FWIW. So much fun, this list!
