At least respect JKR if you can't say something intelligent

>>> Also, we must remember, that at least when she was writing the 
first few books, I doubt she expected readers to be looking this 
closely at the facts and the timelines and all that. Clearly 100% 
accurate and sensical timelines are not something thats a priority to 
her. It's something that she overlooked. ... <<<

>> I agree, I doubt she expected readers to be looking so closely for
timelines and whatnot. I think one of her biggest mistakes, including
Flint and Mark Evans, was noting the date of Nick's deathday as 1492.
If it weren't for that specific date none of this date speculation
could be going on. <<

How did you know that HG ? How can you comment on her priorities?<<

HunterGreen:
I think you misunderstood me. (did you read my entire post, or just 
the above quote?). I was referring to the complaint of July 31st 1991 
being a Wednesday, not a Tuesday, and the impossibility of September 
1st always being on a Sunday. But I was also saying that those things 
DO NOT MATTER. My post was mostly focused on readers jumping to 
conclusions that something is a mistake when its not, and when it is 
an actual mistake its something so small that it doesn't matter.
I don't know her priorities, that's correct, but if 100% accurate and 
sensical timelines (notice the number of adjectives...) are a 
priority to her, its not a high priority. Otherwise (if they were 
*100%* accurate, as opposed to 99.999999% accurate, like I think they 
are) there wouldn't be *any* mistakes.

>>I have read a lot of theories on this site that I don't agree with,
but at least they respected the material and the author.
And clearly one of my biggest mistakes is getting all worked up over
this.................<<

HunterGreen:
Perhaps it is. Because myself and (I'm assuming) DuffyPoo weren't 
really cricitizing her work at all. I think her point was that naming 
a year was a mistake because then everyone jumped forward to figure 
out what the current year was, and that took away part of the 
timeless quality of the books (not from within the books, I for one 
never bothered to do the math) and it let people accuse her of making 
day and date mistakes, when the date is not an important part of the 
books.
