Yeah, that and the fact that in the case of the only person I've ever 
met named Poppy, it was a nickname.  Not a very sound basis for a 
decision, I admit.  Most likely Madam Pomfrey's name is simply Poppy.

Just the same, if we meet any more PPs in the books, I'm going to 
regard them with suspicion 'til I'm sure they're not spies for V.
