The other thing that's always quietly bothered me is the description 
of Dudley
as prime bully boy, leader of a gang and inspirer of fear and awe in 
his
classmates.  Since when has "the fat kid" been anything other than a 
figure of
ridicule and social rejection among his classmates?  A friend of mine 
who went
to a snooty boy's school and gained a lot of weight there was 
positively burnt
at the stake by his peers!
