Hi Penny - 

I must confess that I thought of you when I posted that comment.  I 
guess we both couldn't resist!  :-)  However, I'm glad that someone 
else agrees that Harry and Hermione work together so well.  When Harry 
and Ron have adventures, the intensity of Hermione is not there.  I 
just love the image of Hermione sitting on the ground with her hands 
around her knees, listening to Harry tell her about the Patronus.  
Hermione, for all her bossiness and snippy answers, proves herself to 
be a great listener, which is something Harry needs *in a friend*.  
Oooh, sorry, Penny - gosh, I really can't help myself here!
