ME - Isn't this because we're getting Harry's POV? I believe Ron's 
got a few surprises left in store for us, yet.
But because we see Harry's side, and I would guess Harry's not 
overjoyed by the way things have turned out, although he's not nasty 
to Ron, he's not exactly overjoyed. So we hear less about Ron and his 
amazing achievemants...
Go Ron. Go Harry. When's Hermione's turn?
It's a lesson we've all got to learn.
Cheers. AmanitaMuscaria
