Boy, Penny, this was a great article.  I wonder why I keep getting goose-bumps when I read these kinds of articles.  It's like finally being on the winning side or something.

I did find one small mistake (boy, do I had nitpickers):

"Harry is going through an initiation period, and we all go through that. ... We all feel like Harry did for the tournament. He did not want his name in the pot (to participate in the high-stakes International Quidditch Cup). He was too young." 

Thanks for the post.

  Hi --

  There was a cover story on HP as a pop icon in the Lifestyle section of
  the Houston paper this morning.  Interesting read (and I've *got* to
  contact some of the professors who were quoted as saying they disagreed
  with the NY Times & said the books were read by huge #s of adults --
  <g>).
