problems with e-groups/various

Hi everybody - is it just me? Tonight I've got two of lots of some messages and 
none of others - makes reading a thread ... interesting! Next challenge - will 
this e-mail make it through what ever barrier is enshrouding either my computer 
or e-groups

But- only got one of the responses to the wizard pictures but I like the theory 
that the picture reflects the state of mind of the person at the time it is 
taken. Good example of Sirus and Harry.

Stephanie, just because they are books for children doesn't mean that they 
should not reflect the diversity of human life. After all there are going to be 
little gay boys and dykey girls reading as well. It makes the same sense to 
exclude them as it does to exclude children with disabilities or of a certain 
religious or racial group. After all most kids books are not going to get into 
the nitty gritty of living with cystic fibrosis or other conditions - doesn't 
mean those kids can't/shouldn't be reflected in books, same as the strange c  
hristian traditions - like eating the body of your dead god* - you might not 
want to go into the detail of what this means - but it doesn't mean it can just 
be pretended away

And I think Remus and Sirus belong together. I'm convinced by grimslasher's 
stories (on ff.net - A camping story and Love in Ruins) I love A Sirus Affair 
too but, just not the same. I hope they will prove a very loving role model 
couple for George in years to come.

*I do know this is usually seen as a metaphor and I'm trying to make a point 
about where people stand rather then be offensive - please take it in that 
sprit.
