I'm not going to carry on replying to these messages, it's wandering way too far off topic, and I don't want to have half this list hating me, ok? No offence if I didn't reply to some of the very good points made... there is just one thing I'd like to clear up

"However, I am interested in the fact that when I initially read PS 
(English edition) I didn't automatically think that Dean Thomas was 
black, purely because of his support for West Ham, and I've yet to 
understand why others assumed this, and why they seem to think that 
others should as well."

No! I didn't mean, he supports West Ham, therefore is black! I didn't assume this, and I don't think anyone else should either.

I mentioned West Ham as support for the idea that people came to Hogwarts from all over, including from London. It was someone else's idea (I can't remember who, I'm sorry) that if he was black and supported West Ham there might be an orphanage connection... but that was not my theory, ok?
