Please forgive me if this has already been mentioned.
It has just occurred to me that the release of OoP happens to fall on the
same day as the Summer Solstice. I had already assumed that the day of release
(not having kept up with interviews and news re the new book) was chosen as the
start of summer break, or as a good midpoint between the CoS movie and the PoA
in 2004, or some other logical marketing purpose, but now I can't help but
wonder if there's another significance....or am I missing something entirely?
I (Fridwulfa):
I thought the summer solstice was june the 24th. And I thought one of the reasons it was released on a saturday was to allow everyone to go purchase the book, no school or work skiping and all that.
Cheers, Izaskun
