And that's wrong for what reason? Have you forgotten that the entire setting 
of this book takes place in not only a fictional world but a magical one as 
well? Has our society lost so much contact with what is fantastic that we are 
now just beings of pure logic? I certainly hope not. 

And for the love of all that's holy, can we please get off this stupid "wand 
mistake" crap? Who the hell cares if Lily or James came out first? I never 
even noticed until it was pointed out on this list. Can't you just enjoy it?
