Hi all,
 Regarding Hermione dating Viktor. It seems to me, and I could be wrong,
 that the kids in the wizard world seem to be a little bit more "grown-up"
 than the kids in the Muggle world. Maybe it has to do with the fact
 that they seem to be forced to face more life and death situations than
 other kids do. Well at least maybe in Book 5 with Voldermort back on the
 loose. But if you compare Dudley say with Harry, Ron or Hermione you can
 see the difference. Part of that is that Dudley is so overspoiled by
 his parents and that is probably why he is so babyish, but the wizard
 kids have always seem to me to be a little more mature than their
 counterparts. Such as drinking butterbeer. Does anyone know if it is
 really a "beer" or more like root beer? They always say that is "warms"
 them up when they drink it. To me that says that it has some amount
 of alchol in it. And no before anyone goes off, I don't have anything
 against a child having just a little bit. I figure if it is given to
 them when they are young in small amounts then when they are teenagers
 and older it is not the big deal that is can become. Till later Shelly
