actually, *all* unimportant questions with strictly non-spoiler 
answers. That, I have considered, and yet, I still have an inkling 
that JKR doesn't play that way. One of them, surely, is a valuable 
clue, but which one I am hesitant to guess, for now.

think *now* that we might have missed our chance on? I think that 
might help us to wrangle a Really Canon Brilliant answer out of the 
great  one this time. LOL

Jen: Maybe your right, Valky! I figured since JKR was picking the 
questions they wouldn't hold important clues, but...

Well, JKR said in an interview right after OOTP that she 'killed' a 
character in it, so it's pretty clear Sirius is dead (but seems 
certain to still be part of the plot). And we all know what happened 
to Mark Evans. Could that mean *gasp* there's something to the 
Perseus Evans = Severus Snape anagram?!? 

As for the new poll, I voted for "Remember my last" because I'm just 
very curious what that refers to, and I think the answer holds a 
clue to why Petunia agreed to take Harry in and/or how much contact 
she's had with the WW. 

The Percy one, even if he is a spy, doesn't mean much for the 
overall plot. Personally, I think Wormtail has gone AWOL from 
Voldemort, but we'll find out in Book 6 anyway, when JKR promised 
he'll return. So unless there's a really surprising answer to one of 
these questions.....I'm sticking to what's behind Door #3!
