Melanie,

>>I have only one argument against that, and that's the fact that they're
"scanned" and sorted one at a time>>

That would be absolutely true and logical if the hat was a computer in
disguise but it's a magic, enchanted hat. Who knows, maybe it does a scan
of all the students as they arrive on Howarts grounds. Maybe the hat is
aware of all the wizards in the UK. Maybe the magic pen and the hat are
in cahoots. We don't know the extent of the hat's power. Think about it.

regards, Jim
