Inge replies:
Personally I have decided not to take part in JKR's polls - and to 
not know the results and her eventual answers.
I'd much rather wait and learn all those things in the last 2 books...
Given the answers to questions we burn to ask takes away too much of 
the excitement of waiting.
I was truely disappointed to learn from JKR (chat-interview) that 
Snape is (probably) not a vampire and would much rather have the 
possibility still open to discussion and find out through the next 
books that he isn't.
Same thing with Mark Evans. Truely disappointed to *know* that he is 
not important. Wish I didn't know beforehand since this information 
takes away some of the fun in speculating.
There will surely be other things JKR may want to let us in on 
through her website - which would give information to what's going to 
happen in the next books (or will not happen) ... nope - don't want 
to know :-)
If possible I'd lock her up and have her stay that way till the books 
were all finished and out - not letting her reveal a word of what to 
(or not to) expect - and then, after book 7 would want for her to 
answer every question there might be to solve loose ends....
