Sheryll:

Thanks for jumping in, Lizzie. You are correct that HarryPotterforGrownups is a completely different place. I used to have it bookmarked for occasional perusal but I don't any longer. I'm not sure when it came into existence, but it was after HPFGU.

Going back to Catlady's response, I remember well the transition from Y!Clubs to E-Groups to our current Y!Groups. Hard to believe that next year HPFGU will be 10 years old! My, but the time flies. I wonder how many of the Y!Clubs members are still around, lurking in the background?
