I hope none of my posts about Krum were thought of as negative!  I'm 
a Krum supporter and wish there was more talk about him.  Of course, 
I guess there isn't much we can say regarding him. There isn't much 
information on him.  I just hope he's around again, which I am sure 
he will be.

I think you had a good take on Krum.
