::sigh::  I did something really stupid to find out.  I was one of the people 
who read every spoiler that was printed and loved reading them, and Friday 
night (I live on the East Coast, US) I went on to a UK site (some newspaper, I 
think) and clicked on a link to a message board discussing the book, kind of 
accidentally.  I saw someone had asked "who dies?" and, *positive* that it had 
to be Hagrid or Lupin, I unconsciously scrolled and saw the one word answer, 
"Sirius." ::tries to hold back a tragic sob::

I only wanted to know if it had been *Someone Else, Anyone Else* dammit.  I 
practically went into shock, I refused to believe it, but didn't dare look more 
on the site just in case it really was true and read the whole book feeling 
sick to my stomach becasue I was so upset ::sigh::

Maybe next time I'll go the "no spoilers" route. With only two books to go, 
I'm starting to drift from "rip" into "savor" mode; I want to enjoy every page 
of the last 2 books, because once it's over, it'll never be the same again.
