Welcome back - I look forward to seeing you in some of the chats.

Seriously, I think this is a good idea... I've even worked out a "lineup"
(Students vs. Faculty):"

Ron should be a knight - it is his preferred position (PS chapter 16). Also
Sirius should be a bishop (dog collar) <vbg>.

Not to mention: Voldermore, Voldermort and many, many others. This has
really hampered my FAQ writing efforts!

later to become Voldemort. As to Simons's questoin as to why ppl didn't look
for him - maybe he had never made the kind of friends at school who would
look out for him (or they knew where he was going). He certainly didn't have
any family. Once he had turned down the (inevitable) position at the MoM
they probably didn;t care either"

So one of the best Hogwarts students goes missing and the wizard world goes:
So what? I find that so unbelievable.
