Thought of something else...

Yet another reason why I don't believe H/H is plausible:  How come Ron did not 
get jealous of all the tabloid articles pairing up Harry and Hermione?  Yes, 
there was the "scarlet woman" remark and all that, but it seemed to me he was 
pretty jealous of Viktor and didn't even seem bothered by the Harry-thing.  
And he was pretty jealous,too..I think if there were some underlying tension 
between Harry and Hermione, we would have seen Ron reacting to it.

Have you noticed I always emerge from lurkdom when this topic comes up?  You 
know, back when I first joined this list, I didn't care one way or the other, 
but somewhere along the line I became a devout R/H shipper.  Ah well...
