Steve, could you have been thinking of the following, relating to 
Professor Vector? :-

You're right, that was the reference I was thinking of. But I do have 
both of them listed as witches. I remember NOT having either of them 
listed as anything other than professor and then changing first one 
when I found a reference and then the other not long after that. So I 
am pretty darn sure that there is something. I don't put things down 
without facts to back them up, but I suppose I could have messed up. 
I'll go through my notes and see if I can find what it was that 
tipped me off. (And I really don't think it was dancing with Moody 
that led me to assume it).

Boy, this is gonna drive me nuts...
