        Interesting debates. I have a few problems with this rumor being 
accurate, mostly to do with past reactions to HP titles. If 'Philosopher's Stone' 
was changed to 'Sorcerer's Stone' due to the publisher's belief that it 
wouldn't sell in the US, how much more poor reaction on their part will such an 
obscure term produce? Not to mention the -odd- possibilities inherent in 
translating the term. 'Pillar of Love'? Poor, with too much potential to be a double 
entente. Or is this only a possibility in English? Do other languages make a 
distinction?
