Just wanted to say that I am in no way trying  to imply that you're 
not telling the truth Penny, it's just that I find that hard to 
believe.  
I would like to see this from JKR if it was indeed meant to be 
corrected.  What I mean is that the whole chapter is undermined if it 
says that "Harry knew it was his mother b/c she was the one he had 
thought of more than any other that night."  He DID NOT think of his 
mother that night, he thought of his father, and the story doesn't 
make sense anyother way, in my not so humble opinon.
Lastly I agree with the person who said that this type of mistake can 
undermine the credibility of an author.

Now lets just all cross our fingers and hope that Scholastic admits 
it was a mistake...

what other "errors" or "inconsistencies" that we've caught that 
haven't yet been caught by JKR or Scholastic (or Bloomsbury for that 
matter).
