belsum:
I believe Sirius was in Slytherin as well.  Thanks for the great canon 
interpretation to support it!

Then I start to wonder how James and Sirius ended up such great 
friends.  Was there more Slytherin/Griffindor openness in their 
generation?  Were they friends from before they went to Hogwarts?

Of course I'm also convinced that the Evanses, not the Potters, are the 
magical side of Harry's family.  I know there's only a few of us.  Can 
we buy a pontoon and serve snacks?  And we need a name!
