Thanks *so* much, Pippin.  Yet another Horrible Thought to keep me 
awake at 3 o' clock in the morning.

I doubt most of my students would appreciate the characters all grown-
up anyway.  When I told my fifth graders last year, "A lot of adults 
like these books too," they were dumbfounded.  "But these books are 
for kids."  "Well, adults were kids once too."  "But they're not 
now."  It's okay for a teacher to like the books, but I'm not sure I 
could explain HP4GU or the PoU phenomenon.  They would not get it at 
all.

So they might click on the link, but not be extremely interested in 
the content IMO.
