 Don't panic I'm not going to re-hash the arguments heralding the 
justification of various ships, I think they've been more than 
adequately covered, and better than anything I could produce.

 Peter's post got me thinking as I've also pondered what, if any, 
influence Hermione's status as JKR's 'quasi' may play in how the 
canon characters end up relationship wise. 

 I just 'hmmm' if Hermione will ultimatly wind up with the character 
JKR has acknowledged to be based on one of her oldest friends.
(That's Ron/second book was dedicated too, friend).
 When asked if Hermione would lighten up in later books JKR said 'She 
will, I did', so in that area anyway there is a correlation.
 So this may be significant, it may not.

 This would be pure speculation on my part, and worthless to draw any 
conlusions from.
Peter's post just got me thinking again.

 Lisa (who dosn't ship so please don't hurt me)
 I'm one of those people that likes to read author's autobiographies 
as well as their novels to further shed light on character's 
motivations.
