Hear hear!  And by all means have a go at us daft 'murricans.  
Translating JKR's English into murrican makes about as much sense as 
dubbing Monty Python or Chef.  Jeesh.

But hark!  What books through yonder mailbox break!  My copies of the 
HP series from Canada have arrived, and there's a surprise!  Instead 
of sending me the Raincoast edition of GOF, they sent me the 
Bloomsbury edition; and it even says "First Edition" on the copyright 
page.  Did somebody in the stockroom make a booboo?  I ain't 
complainin'!
