A Possible and Very Stupid Flint

Okay, Penny's question about classes after exams inspired me to post 
something that I noticed a while back from PoA.  If this is a Flint, 
it is not only pathetic that I noticed it, but might enable me to gain 
membership to the L.O.O.N. society.

At the end of PoA when Harry and co. are taking their finals, they 
return from their Herbology final "with sunburnt necks" after being 
"in the greenhouses under a baking-hot sun" (ch. 16).  If I am not 
mistaken, aren't greenhouses completely made of glass?  Unless some of 
the panels are made of mesh or something to let a breeze in, there is 
no way they can get sunburnt necks through glass.  Sweaty necks, yes, 
but not sunburnt ones.

How's that for nitpickiness?
