Oh, goodness... I think I'm just about shipped out!  <g>

Actually, from talking to kids in the target age range for the 
series, it seems as if they actually care more about the romances 
than we do.  I think if you took a poll, you'd find that 
proportionately more adults are no-shippers.

My mood towards shipping in the remaining three books shifts like the 
wind.  At the present time, I think I could live without it.  I'm 
less pro-ship than I am anti OBHWF.  I don't think it fits the books.

However, I do agree with a lot of what Penny said.  The one thing 
that bothers me about the shipping vs. non-shipping issue is that the 
shippers are often seen as not being serious or careful readers.  
This is most certainly not the case.
