Please can you tell me where she was quoted as saying that? I 
distinctly remember reading it just as you say prior to the release 
of the first movie yet when I mentioned it here in one of my 
earliest posts I was flamed mercilessly. I've been unable to find 
the exact source although I'm guessing it was in the Time magazine 
article for a couple of reasons. 1 being that at the time I had a 
subscription to Time and 2 being when I went to their website to 
research that particular issue it was a Pay-per-view-issue only and 
I refuse to pay to read an article from a magazine I'd already 
bought and paid for. So out of the *hundreds* of quotes and 
interviews I searched for (Rowling, Columbus, Kloves) that excerpt I 
was unable to read the very article in which  I'm 99% sure her 
comments as to the (non) whereabouts of James during the filming of 
that scene remain--behind a locked door. 
If you have that quote I'd LOVE to see it again. If only to reassure 
myself that I did, indeed, read it. I'm sure it was actually 
Columbus who said it, might have been Kloves speaking *of* Rowling's 
insistance--but there was definitely insistance that James NOT be 
shown at GH.

Thanks.
Mel
