Understandable about how harry won't be the teacher.. i knew he 
wouldn't be.. but I wouldn't be suprised if the D.A. continues. 
However, I wouldn't be suprised if a few members of the order are 
the teachers. since most parents would not object to the teacher 
(except for of course Lucious) Lupin could possible return.. along 
with Tonks and the real Moody possibly? 

I don't think that Snape will ever be the teacher... I think it's 
going to almost be a recurring joke with JR.. I don't think he's 
ever going to get it. He could possible get close... but no... no.. 
almost got it!! NOPE!!! stripped away. 

But anyways.. I also would not be suprised if they rotated members 
of the order as the teacher, going along with the other idea, having 
several teachers focus on the things that they are particularly good 
at. a new teacher a week, so that one doesn't get stuck with the 
job, and can go back to order business afterwards. 

If an Order officer takes the job though, it would be hard for them 
to teach one from Slytherin, such as Draco or Crabbe.. there are 
bound to be more scuffles with their parents, so either the kids 
will take it out on the teacher, or object to being taught by the 
enemy etc... your thoughts?
