I have a question for that.  How on earth did Sirus manage to get to the
common room fire from Grimmald place to talk to Harry, and after the end
of lessons with Snape, Harry was able to reverse the deal from Umbridge's
office.  I can understand Sirius getting special clearance, but for it to work
in reverse has me puzzled.
