It's very interesting, but DS9 is my favorite of all the Treks.  I 
had my own site with the 22 DS9 stories I've written...up until 
Homestead started charging for them!  I hope to find them a new home 
sometime soon.

Anyway.....I agree pretty much with your House choices for the 
various characters.  Jadzia Dax would have been a Ravensclaw, but 
Ezri is a Gryffindor.  Miles O'Brien....Hufflepuff.  Worf, another 
Hufflepuff, I think.  And Gul Dukat....SLYTHERIN!  The sorting hat 
would shout that before he even got the hat on his head.  Garak, in 
many ways, reminds me of Snape, as his loyalties seemed rather 
ambiguous at times.  Yet, he's a Slytherin, too.
