    I have to agree. I've read so many posts or articles from people 
rambling on and on about how the Potter books are dragging the world 
deeper into the abyss of hell. I can tell these people can't read 
about a 3rd grade level, which I think these books are more like a 
5th grade level. :) I say this because had they read the books, 
they'd see they were about good winning over evil or at least kicking 
its butt real good. Its also about love, friendship and loyalty. How 
is that evil?

   I do have to agree, but she has made some hints that I think can't 
really be ignored. Percy is obvious to me. The way he's written in 
the books, he's gotta be gay, since I can picture him walking around 
with his nose in the air all the time, being a "drama queen". :) 
Heck, even Ron shows little intrest in girls that I can see. Other 
than the one comment to a girl about wanting to see "uranus". :) Even 
that could mean he's a bum man, or a shirt-lifter, as they say in the 
UK. :

   I agree. He really did fall for Bill, didn't he. :) I know Ron 
worships him and Charlie as well, but Harry's reaction was almost 
like what I've seen in some sappy Mary Sue ficcies. :)
