Hello tminton at deckerjones.com,

In reference to your comment:

è Are we in agreement that Sirius Black was in Slytherin
è house??  Tonya  (this just dawned on me yesterday
è while listening to OOP, ok so I am a little slow on the
è up take........Sorry)


Noooo!Just because your family is made up of Dark Wizards doesn't mean you 
are one or that you would be placed in Slytherin. As DD said, it's all about 
choices. Black made up his mind at a very young age not to be what his family 
was. I think it is fair to say that there is NO way Sirius was in Slytherin. 
There are many clues, the foremost being Snape's memory. Wormtail, Moony, Padfoot, 
and Prongs probably would not have been all sitting together, all laughing at 
Snape, and all discussing how James nicked the snitch were they not all in 
the same house.

With Harry, we see that most 'close friendships' grow out of households. 
INHO, Sirius was in Gryffindor.
