Here's another question, and I sincerely hope that it isn't too
terribly dumb.
In PoA, Fred and George tell Harry that there are 7 secret passages
on the Marauder's Map, and Harry observes that "many of them seemed
to lead" to Hogsmeade. One starts at the one-eyed witch and leads to
Honeydukes. One starts at the Whomping Willow. Filch knows about 4
of them. The last is the "one behind the mirror on the fourth
floor." Fred says that they "used it until last winter, but it's
caved in -- completely blocked."
In CoS, Ron, Lockhart and Harry are in a tunnel, which leads from
Moaning Myrtle's (which floor?) and caves in when Ron's wand
backfires. Is JKR referring to the same tunnel Fred and George say
was blocked, or does she perhaps have something else in mind for the
blocked tunnel on the Marauder's Map?
