Adesa:
Yes! Yes! Yes! I've wondered since I first read that passage when JKR 
would be bringing us back to the remaining contraband. Harry later 
passes the info on to Ron (thereby sending the message to Arthur), 
and we assume he's able to bust Malfoy on it. But there's more to it, 
I'm sure. What *else* is hidden at the Malfoy mansion? What other 
hidden chambers might Lucius have? 

And what about Knockturn Alley? That whole incident could *easily* 
been cut from the m-word, yet it remained. If you watch the deleted 
scenes, what information actually *was* cut, and what remained? 
Knockturn Alley is still there, but how much revelation about the 
Malfoy's stash remains?

"A crackdown on innocent homeschooling families to cure the 
incompetence of government child welfare agencies is like a smoker 
lopping off his ear to treat metastatic lung cancer. It's a bloody 
wrong cure conceived by a fool who caused his own disease." ~Michelle
