Hey everyone!  There have been quite a few threads of late about how 
DD might be evil, and I just came across this quote of JKR's 
disputing the theory.  (Actually I've read this interview before, 
but I forgot about it >_<)

Evan Solomon: "Do you have more fun writing the evil characters? 
Because Lord Voledmort [the sinister wizard who killed Harry's 
parents] is the quintessential evil character."

JKR: "Yeah, he's a bad one. Do I have more fun? I loved writing 
Dumbledore and he is the epitome of goodness. But I loved writing 
Rita."

And there is also the interview where JKR said she puts a lot of her 
own opinions through DD.

Anyway, there's that for people to chew over. :-)
