Jen: Oops, I'm wrong about JKR using the full-blood term, because 
JKR refers to Harry as 'half-blood' in her World Book Day chat (and 
in OOTP, which I totally forgot). So Hunter, I think you're right 
there are only three terms. Although I wonder at what point you 
cease being a half-blood and become pure-blood?
