I sent this out a while ago, but I got a server message saying that delivery 
had been "delayed" and that I shouldn't resend it.  Well, as I have not seen 
it come up yet, I'm ignoring them and resending it. :P

**********************************************************************

I believe it has been brought up in many movies (the recent version of
Casper, the Friendly Ghost comes to mind) where it is said that people turn 
to ghosts when they die because of "unfinished business". Moaning Myrtle 
says that she made sure to become a ghost because she wanted to torture the 
girl who had previously making fun of her. The others, Nearly Headless Nick, 
Bloody Baron... had obvious reasons for becoming ghosts. Perhaps Proff. 
Binns found it his duty to continue teaching and therefore became a ghost. 
Peeves is a bit different because he's a poltergeist.  Anyone know the 
theoretical difference?  If HE has any unfinished business, I think it's 
just that he wanted more time to have fun. GO PEEVES!! :@)

** Apologies for not being able to quote chapters and page numbers.  I am 
going at this from memory, as my little sister has all the books at home and 
I am at school. **
