No, you're right, Karie, I misread you and was far too oversensitive.

But I do believe Fyre has a valid point that Draco is, maybe not "the
center," but definitely always a necessary variable in the equations of
Harry's adventures. She offered several great examples of how Draco is part
of the cause and how Harry is the effect.

I don't think even Harry is the center of his own universe. You could argue
that Voldemort is. Harry is the type of person he is because Voldemort
killed his parents. What would his world be like if he had been raised by
Lily and James and Voldemort never existed? Would Lily and James even be
together if Voldemort never existed? Maybe their relationship stems from an
alliance against Voldemort. They developed a relationship based on a working
relationship.

But I do apologize for taking your comments too seriously. Your opinion was
just as valuable as mine and everyone else's and I took your comments in a
negative tone instead of giving you the benefit of the doubt. Bad me.

Olivia, who's off to slam her ears in the oven door.

Well, I didn't mean to be smug, I honestly
would like to know what other evidence there
is for your opinion--I can't remember _all_
of the story, and I'm sure there are things
I've missed.

If my opinion were canon, I'd be rich, lol.
Anyway, I'm sorry if I sounded argumentative,
I didn't mean to.
