<<The exact explanation is that she will "mysteriously appear". >>

I'm planning to be there to witness this appearance, if I can bear having
to go to my local bookshop to pick up my copy of GoF, *after* the event.

I'm imagining some sort of Copperfield-style trick, where they squeeze
JK Rowling into a small box on the train, hiding her until the crucial
moment, when she can burst through the cardboard Platform 9 3/4 in a
puff of green smoke.

As she appears, I envision a choir of schoolchildren chorusing the
Hogwarts school song, each singing a different tune, as tradition
dictates. As this cacophony draws to a close, I see JKR mounting
the footplate of the train engine and tossing bags of Bertie Bott's
Every-Flavour Beans into the bewildered crowd.

Do you think she'll wear wizarding robes, with a black pointy hat... or
just Muggle daywear?
