anyway with my agreement.  No, you're not a dolt.  The cover art can 
be a little confusing at times.  Harry *does* rescue Ginny, but it's 
definitely Hermione with Harry on the Hippogriff.  I'm not quite sure 
why the cover art depicts her as a redhead, though.  Once of those 
mysteries we'll probably never know the answer to...

Probably an error that occured while turning the cover painting into 
a photo and the photo into a color separation and the color 
separation into 4 million copies ... A kazillion charities send me 
unsolicited return address stickers, and sometimes I am amused by how 
different the colors are between two (apparent) print runs of the 
same art.
