Potioncat:

Don't be sorry.  I asked too, not so long ago.  Because I think 
sometimes our ages affect how we see certain aspects of the story.

 With some pleasant guidence, I was directed to this site which is a 
poll of readers' ages:
> http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPforGrownups/surveys?id=428071

It has a breakdown of our ages.  I'm not sure how current it is 
now.  And as a lot of us belong in the over 50 portion (clue), I 
think it would be interesting to start that poll over and see how 
current participants ages run.  I'd suggest not stopping at 50...I  
think several of us are older than 50.

There is a Harry Potter for Adults, which I found when I was first 
looking for this site... but "Adult content" and "Grownup 
Discussion" are not at all the same thing (blush).

You will find that some posters will say, "Look it up."  and some 
will say, "You'll find an interesting discusion about this at post 
#__________ "  And those who aren't interested in what you have to 
say, don't have to read your posts.  But the rest of us will. 

Welcome to the site!

Potioncat (ever so much more than 20)
