Ah, so there is another side to the following! <grin> I guess I was a
bit presuming about the 'dead sexy' comment. Apologies all around!

I am terrible, aren't I? Well, I merely blame the list for creating an
environment in which I feel I can express my opinions freely. This is
such an open, non-insulting list that I feel completely at home.
Everyone (moderators and members, both lurking and active) deserves
warm fuzzies for being mature, inclusive, and polite. And dizzingly
fun!

<purses lips> Very good point. I'll have to give more thought as to
what I think of Dumbledore. Another good thing about the list: diverse
views on HP. Just when you think you can only see a character one way,
someone comes along and proves you wrong!
