he's

The passage Rita quoted was from CoS.  So she was a 4th year when 
Harry was a 2nd.

I have another canon question that's really, really picky, so I'm 
putting it here.  Are Stunning and Stupefying Charms the same thing?

In GF I think what is referred to as "Stunning" is spoken "Stupefy!"  
So I thought, OK, the incantation is "Stupefy!" but the name of the 
charm is Stunning.  Simple enough.

Then I noticed that FB mentions "Stupefying Charms" (see sig).  What 
do you think?  Two terms for the same thing?

I said it was picky!  But how else am I going to rival Hermione's 112% 
in Charms?

 with simple hexes or Stupefying Charms.
