Magpie:
Heh. Not enough to change her mind about stuff in interviews. Things 
like "this is what happens to characters after the book" isn't 
something she can have a handle on since until it's written in a 
book it's just as nebulous to her as anyone else. Remember that 
person who would do magic later in life? Or Hermione's middle name? 
The difference, of course, is that *she* can change her mind and it 
makes no difference the next day, but fandom will stick with 
whatever she says until she says differently.
