Oooh ... I hadn't noticed that, but now that you mention it ...
I haven't listened to GoF lately. We had borrowed it and had to 
return it. Time for me to buy it for my own. We have all the others 
either on CD or tape. There is NO better way, IMHO, to pass a long 
bar ride with the kids than to listen to Harry. I CANNOT believe that 
Jim Dale can create so many great voices that are SO unique. It is 
AWESOME. 

As a funny aside, when my kids and I first listed to GoF on tape, we 
laughed our heads off when Madame Maxime first talkes and 
says 'Dumbley-dore'. I nearly drove off the road! They still walk 
around once in a while saying 'Dumbleydore' in that voice just to 
make me laugh!
