That thought must of hit alot of us.

If I remember correctly there was a news item a couple of years ago
where her ex surfaced 
briefly to claim that JKR got the idea for Harry from him.  And (once
again if I remember 
correctly I can't find that item rihgt now), JRK said something like
"...he probably tells his 
friends that he conceived Harry Potter" .
