SSSusan [chortling]:
Saul/Paul checking in!  Fair enough to be suspicious, rather than 
congratulatory, Kneasy.  I must confess that I am not sure I could 
compose such a paean of praise.  I believe I could do it w/o 
mentioning Rickman (though it would be *infinitely easier* if I did 
get to mention him), but I'm not sure I could compose it such that it 
contained *only* praise.  Would that be a requirement???


Off this thread a bit, but still somewhat appropriate, I find it 
amusing that in my work, managing a library video collection, I just 
this moment picked up a video entitled The Teenage Brain:  A World of 
Their Own, with the following description:  

"Research has shown that during puberty, when the brain begins 
teeming with hormones, the pre-frontal cortex, the center of 
reasoning and impulse control, is still a work in progress."  

Hee.  I'm sure some would find that an apt description of our Harry?
