>> You see, if we discuss every single aspect of everything in the HP books
over and over again, we may eventually reconcile all the inconsistent
details and mysteries and prove, once and for all, that the HP books are, as
we are all hoping deep in our little hearts, works of non-fiction. <<
> ...the Baker Street Irregulars have been doing something similar for
decades, now. I wonder how much crossover there is between Sherlockians and
HP fans. <
At least three that I know of at present, besides myself... and you're right
that the approach we take to both sets of books is very similar.
I should post the question to RUSS-L* and see how many more Sherlockian
hands fly up into the air. Some of us are also members of HOUNDS-L**, so we
might get some answers from the more orthodox Holmesians as well.
