Simple H/H confusion

Here's my shipping position up front:  I see the canon drifting R/H, 
but I wouldn't put money on it continuing to do so, JKR being the 
gloriously unpredictable writer that she is, nor do I care a 
shrivelfig whether it does.  

Firoza was ISO explanations of the subtext suggesting that Hermione 
likes Harry...

I haven't seen them either.  Maybe it's been gone over so many times 
that H/Hers assume that when they allude to this subtext, it's clear 
what they mean.  I'm open to seeing it (since joining HPforGU, I've 
looked for it as I've reread the books--and even found it here and 
there!) but since joining this list just before Christmas, I don't 
believe I've seen a simple list of phrases/incidents/etc. that support 
Hermione Likes Harry.

I know such a list is coming in the FAQ, and I don't want to throw 
gasoline on what seems to be a fire in a jam jar...I just want you to 
know that it's not only rabid R/Hers who plain old just don't get the 
H/H argument.

Where's that Ron/Harry ship?  Let me climb aboard before this ol' dock 
town goes up in flames.  Hell, I bet even Hermione would want to join 
me, just so this thing gets settled.

with a new sig, a cautionary tale about the utter unreliability of 
predictions . . . even by a Seer like Ron:
------------------------------------------------------
  "So you mean the Stone's only safe as long as 
Quirrell stands up to Snape?" said Hermione in alarm.
  "It'll be gone by next Tuesday," said Ron.
