Yes, I read each and every post.  It gets very time consumming when I 
miss a couple of days for some reason.  Today is the first day I've 
been able to catch up with the board since last Wednesday... that's 
over 400 messages.  I currently have a little over a 100 left to 
go!!  I love reading people insights and opinions and theories as to 
what has happened so far and what's to come.  I will be at Barnes and 
Noble on June 20th at midnight.  ;-)

Now for my non-OT post... I personally think the V man will play a 
small, almost non-existant part in OOP.  His minions (ie. Lucius) 
will play a bigger part than he will.
