If he were at St. Mungo's, wouldn't they have taken his wand away?  Who would 
allow a wizard who's been locked away for some "mental problem" to have a 
wand?  That would be dangerous, and the first thing they'd take from him, I 
would imagine.  Then again, I think Harry is a truly GREAT wizard, if a 
junior-scale one for the moment, and we KNOW he can do magic without his wand 
(the disappearing glass at the zoo, blowing up Aunt Marge, etc.) but the wand 
does help concentrate the magic in some fashion so it is important.  
Interesting thoughts -- these speculations are fun!  Can't wait to get my 
book so I can find out what inspired the picture!

Do we know for sure that the same artist is doing the chapter illustrations?  
Why, then, did a different artist do the UK covers?  Does anyone here know?
