Tragic tale of meeting an author plus ...

[storm]

Tabouli told very sad story about meeting Antonia Forest, author
of a fine series of boarding house stories who sounds like she
was unable/unwilling to contribute anything to her side of the
conversation.

Hell's bells Tabuli, she was the grown up, she could have helped
you out! You poor bugger! well deserved the tragic violins.

> (btw, storm - is there some significance behind your rejection
of the capital S?)

no.

err, there must be a reason, something else I can say. hmm, I
just like it that way.

re John's what do you like about this list question ...

well I've been around HPfGP since Auguest/September 2000 and,
like Professor Phlash I really appreciate the sence of community
on this list. In fact, <guilty shrug> I haven't read at the main
list of over 4 months. I like seeing the world though Harry
tinted glasses though and I can do that here without getting
caught up in wondering how many students are at Hogwarts (what's
up with that <g> btw?, I read the film set only had room for 400
students in the great hall, <ducks and run>)

<snort of surprise> I've just checked the main list ... and guess
what is up for discussion? Also I checked out the lexion - wow
has that grown too. Choclate frogs to Steve and everyone else.
Penny, love the article about the size of student population.
