(wood from an olive tree) In the books, I like him, a nice, sincere,
committed guy. If I knew him in person, I would quite dislike him. If
we were in a class together, one day after class I would be talking
about something in the lesson that interested me, and he would be bored
and change the subject to Quidditch and I would say: "For God's sake,
don't you Ever think about Anything but Quidditch??"

And he would say: "I don't know why you waste your brain on that nurd
stuff that isn't any use for anything, unless you're trying to be a
teacher's pet."

I'd say: "Because it is such a nice distraction from useful things that
are so depressing. Like global warming. The Muggles are ruining the
climate so there'll be lots more hurricanes and droughts and floods,
and it's not fair, their hurricanes and droughts and floods hit us,
too. My mother is working with some expert weather witches and wizards
to develop ways to fix the climate -- that's useful, right?"

Him: "That global warming thing is just a big lie invented by some Muggle
scientists to fool the other Muggles into giving them money to fix it. I
can't believe that any of us, even a fat witch, would be stupid enough
to believe a Muggle lie."
