Amey:
But then, if he could use Floo network like that from Hogwarts, what is the point in saying Hogwarts is the safest place? You just have to floo yourself to any fireplace, and bingo you are in
. marauders would go mad
 and also Gred and Forge. IMO, the floo network in Hogwarts is like a telephone system, not a transportation system.

-	Salit
-	Okay, not quite a proof, but the phrase "another name for another
-	potion" suggests that several are described in the HBP book. The
-	likeliest explanation to that is that Harry manages to continue
-	studying potions.
-	DuffyPoo:
-	Not necessarily, although I am quite certain HP will continue with potions.  The 
-	Trio made Polyjuice Potion outside of class, although Hermione, at least, had 
-	heard about it in class.  This could be as simple as that.  Hermione continues to 
-	take the classes, even though HP and RW do not, and she tells them about a 
-	potion that can do something or other to further their cause.

Amey:
Yes, what is HBP without Snape and Harry’s loving conversations together??? And then, you won’t have Draco taunting Harry with teacher present? No way, that would take away a lot of fun in the book
 and also remember, Snape promised to teach the class to *bottle fame, brew glory, even stopper death*, he hasn’t done that as yet.
And also, there is McGonall saying that she will help Harry being an Auror if that is the last thing she does, and that means two more years of Potions (hopefully with Snape).



-	"uath50"
-	I think that the person that is described, is Luna Lovegood.  Who
-	says that the clue isn't a woman or a girl.

Amey:
The clue behind the door??? It can’t be a woman, there is a *he* in bracket. And I am sure JKR is not going to mislead us to that extent. The person in the clue is a *he*, and if we read it right, he is HBP or is somehow important.
