Rachelle, thanks for posting this link.  These essays were amazingly 
touching.  I had tears in my eyes by the end.  You're right; every 
person who has a problem with HP should be forced to read these.  I 
hope JKR has seen them, and remembers them when she hears of people 
criticizing her work...
