Never mind the train--where did you get your terrific QuickTime 
version?  Mine does not have anything I would describe as detail and 
clarity.

E.g. I can see the candles floating in the Great Hall, but only 
because someone said they were there.  And I have to squint a lot to 
see them.  Plus, I really doubt everyone blinks in slow motion in the 
movie, but that's how I see them (it gives the rather disturbing 
impression that Harry is not so much frowning at Snape as flirting 
with him.  I exaggerate, but only slightly).

I have got to re-download this thing.
