Kitten says,
I'm not a Shipper, IMO Hermione, Ginny, and Luna are great girls, 
but I just don't see them as Harry's, so don't think that I'm weak 
and trying to argue my viewpoint by saying JKR Said so, but If JKR 
wants us to find it in the meaning of her books, why in interviews 
is she still hinting at a Ron/Hermione relationship? As a non 
shipper I can understand why someone would ship Hermione/Harry or 
Ginny and Harry in the books there are great evidence for both, I 
also think that a lot of the books are distorted to suit there 
shipping preference. I just wonder how Harry and Hermione shippers 
interpret her interviews.  

Couric: "Any snogging with Hermione?"
Rowling: [surprised] "Harry and Hermione! Do you think so?" 
-- From Katie Couric's June 2003 interview with JK Rowling

"Harry and Hermione are very platonic [platonic means nonsexual] 
friends. But I won't answer for anyone else. Nudge, nudge, wink, 
wink." 
-- From a National Press Club Luncheon chat with JK Rowling, October 
1999)

Q: Is it just me, or was something going on between Ron and Hermione 
during the last half of Goblet of Fire? 
A: "Yes, something's "going on," but Ron doesn't realize it yet. 
Typical boy." 
-- From a BarnesandNoble.com chat with JK Rowling


Kitten...
Who thinks Harry should end up with a total ghost character, like 
Susan bones, or Sally Anne Perks, Blaise Zabini, Hannah Abbott. I 
guess you do ship who you Identify with...As I go back into lurkdom
