i don't disagree, some of the words she uses are (while unoriginal), 
brilliant.


the main word i dislike, though, is "hogwarts".  it's just... 
unpleasant.


and now for a completely unrelated question to you all:

in the Lexicon site 
(http://www.i2k.com/~svderark/lexicon/puzzles2.html#Who%20are%
20Harry's%20family) it says JKR hinted in an online chat that the 
ancestor/descendent mix up might be intentional.

can anyone give me the the chat transcript URL?
