Kneasy:
Pyrites? Would that be Ian Pyrites,  the renowned fake who glisters? 
Interestingly enough when I tried to find him in Quick-Quotes 
nothing turned up. Dunno if I was entering the wrong search 
parameters.

Bookworm: 
Did you check JKR's website under "Other Stuff"? IIRC it is under 
the info on Original Chapters to Philosopher's Stone.

Jason:
Your query as to why the Potters home was in rubble? Well, because
James fought Voldemort. Spells seem to cause lots of damage when
they hit something. They destroy headstones in graveyards, reduce
tables to rubble, set desks ablaze, blow chunks off statues. Seems a
fight to the death between two powerful wizards would cause plenty
of damage to reduce the Godrics Hollow home to what could be
referred to as "rubble."

Bookworm:
This doesn't make sense if you think about Lily still being alive.  
Somewhere on her website (FAQ, maybe) she said Harry was in his crib 
and saw only a flash of green light. So the house was probably still 
standing when Voldemort attacked Lily.  Whatever turned the house 
into rubble, somehow Harry survived it.

Ravenclaw Bookworm, 
who apologizes for not giving clear citations, but whose computer 
has already crashed once tonight (while trying to check the 
citations) and she doesn't want to risk it again.
