snip So why does Dumbledore, possibly the most powerful wizard alive,allow him to remain at Hogwarts to pester students, staff, and inanimate objects? Does Dumbledore just find him amusing or is it something deeper? <snip>
And it would be nice also to finally find out why
Peeves fears the Bloody Baron so much.

Filch, Snape, Hagrid, Peeves . . . Hogwarts is a vibrant, scary, off-center place to obtain a unique education. DD likes/tolerates/believes in the educational values inherent in "colorful" characters (werewolves, ex-aurors, part giants, centaurs, various monsters), and Hogwarts is full of them. Peeves is another, integral part of what makes Hogwarts that magical center of magic learning, and DD the eccentric genius Headmaster. While muggle children tell stories about (whatever), wizards recall their days at Britain's finest institution, and share the experiences for generations. There is an element of "random learning" in such activity, too. CONSTANT VIGILANCE!!
