 Firstly, I am the same age and like you I don't find this difficult.  
 Secondly, I must say we're not ALL stupid...ok who am I kidding 
 America seems to be a nation full of total gits.  Honestly, if you 
 don't know what a PS is LOOK IT UP!!! Maybe the worst part about this 
 is that little kids don't get the historical references to alchemy 
 that are pretty much blatantly obvious in the book.  Then again most 
 Americans wouldn't know what alchemy was if a REAL Philosopher's 
 stone fell on their head... >>

Must you , or anyone, insult another country and those living in it? The 
title was changed for good intentions or no, but it was done. I didn't know 
what a PS was, had no idea the title in the UK was different for very good 
reasons until I was told. I am completely offended by the comments above and 
don't appreciate them in the least - regardless of how old you are.

Can we leave insults like this out of posts? We're here to discuss Harry 
Potter and have fun doing so, I don't see the relevance of insulting an 
entire country simply to make a point or otherwise.
