OoP: Evans kid & Loony Loopy Luna

Hey everyone?  Having a good time?  I sure am!

First of all--

"Hm, I think that's Ender Wiggins, over there in the
corner, nodding
his head in agreement - and frowning rather heavily as
he does so.

DG"


Oh my gosh!  I absolutely love you DG!  

Now on to the real post-yes, I noticed the Evans kid
Dudley was bullying.  Rule number one of JKR's mind:

Nothing is written without a reason.  Every little
funny detail such as that exists for a reason.  I
mean, come on!  This is J.K. Rowling we're talking
about here, not some amateur.

It's my bet the Evans kid will be mentioned later on. 
On another note:

Luna!

I really like Luna.  Someone said on the OT list that
Dreamy/Spacy!Luna is a good counter for
brainy/logical!Hermione, and I think this is exactly
right.  I must confess that I had that rule above in
my head the entire time I read and I could not make
heads nor tails of Luna's presence in the book.  She
really doesn't do much except present a foil to
Hermione.  So why is she there?  Once again I place a
bet: Luna will be VERY IMPORTANT in future books (like
no one already knew that.)  I read very quickly, but
even so I still don't remember seeing that Luna helped
Harry at all except to amuse him and be in his way.

Any Luna feedback would be wonderful!  

Christine, who is going to Austin tomorrow for
orientation and feels slightly nervous
