The problem is NOT that some of the theories are deranged. The 
problem is that when GoF was released, some 2000 newbies joined the 
list over the next four weeks, and it seemed like HALF of them 
(1000 posts) began by posting: "Hi, I just joined, I'm so-and-so. I 
was wondering, did anyone notice that gleam in Dumbledore's eye 
blablabla, does anyone have ay idea what it could mean? I don't want 
to think it means that Dumbledore is evil!" It was worse than the 
main list and then the movie list when PS movie came out and 10,000 
newbies joined but only 5% of them began by posting "I saw the movie 
and SEAN BIGGERSTAFF IS **HOT**".
