My.....my God...it's just so....RIGHT!

I must honestly hand it to you, Elkins.  I thought you had played 
your trump with Avery the Fourth Man (a theory I'm a little more than 
lukewarm on, but nowhere near boiling), but you have SO bested 
yourself.  This is magnificent!  I was ready to believe you with no 
canon at all, and then...then...you PRESENTED SOME!  It somehow FELT 
absolutely chord-strikingly perfect, and then you went and added 
proof.  If this turns out to not be true, I'll eat my paperback 
British copy of GoF (and promptly buy another copy).  Honestly, how 
can you do this to me?  Don't you see that you have only increased my 
nagging impatience for OotP, etc., something I thought was impossible 
until I read this?  You may not know impatience, but Impatience 
himself has been at my side since I closed GoF for the first time.  
Do you see what you've done?  DO YOU?

This mayn't be proper to post since it's only an agreement, but I 
wanted to let the world know that this ship/theory has one die-hard 
supporter (did your husband at least go for this one, Elkins?).  I am 
SO unworthy to be here.  This is outside my realm of thought.  Don't 
get me wrong, I'm as obsessive as the next fan, but I can't ever 
organize my thoughts to come up with something this astounding.  I 
sure do love reading it, though.  Fantastic!
