I don't remember that occuring in the books...I'm pretty sure he only 
told them about that when Ron got his howler.
However, Ron could still dunk the howler in a glass of water, or even 
sit on it to reduce the volume. Why did he not
do that?

Another question that comes into mind is who gets howlers? Only 
students? I mean, an adult witch or wizard could
get a howler and that would be quite imbarrasing...

And question number three: Why would Ron's mother send a howler and 
shout to everyone that Ron's dad put a
spell on the car? Wouldn't that get Mr. Weasley into even more trouble?

And a last but not least question, about the messages I send: Why is 
HTML content removed?
