Me:

Too right.  Am I the only one who's sick of telling people things 
like this?  I think the admins should start making a list of facts 
people keep screwing up and list them in the database somewhere.  
For instance:

Percy *was* one of the bodies Mrs. Weasley saw with the boggart.
Narcissa's maiden name *was* Black.
Mundungus and Crookshanks have been in the same room at the same 
time!
Droobles Best Blowing Gum is called such in the AMERICAN BOOKS as 
well as the U.K. edition.  See the first book (which apparently, no 
one feels they have to read anymore since it's made into a movie!)
And of course the Lestranges tortured Frank and Alice *after* Harry 
got rid of Voldemort.

James Redmont, who feels that getting the facts straight will allow 
these discussions to be more enjoyable!
