Now Peg:


Ravenclaw--thanks for the cross reference--I never would have found 
it on my own, and I *love* the reasoning behind that theory.  It 
makes perfect sense in terms of canon and explains some apparent 
inconsistencies very nicely.  

I never take anything in the Potterverse at face value.  I've eaten 
so much red herring in this series, I should grow gills . . .

Cheers all!
