I'm not sure she has. It's not one of those situations where there's 
only one way to do this. My point isn't that Hermione is necessarily 
handling it wrongly - just that there are other ways to handle it that 
might explain why we don't see anyone else doing it. I don't think those 
ways are necessarily better - but they can happen.

Hermione also has a threat I never thought of ("I'll write to your 
mother"). If I'd had something like that up my sleeve, things might have 
been *very* different indeed (-8

That is just *cruel*.
