Alla:

JKR is really good in convincing me that Slytherin House is not to be 
liked, unless she is just playing of course.

But I definitely agree with you and Renee - eleven years old as "lost 
causes" do start to annoy me.

On the other hand, it is quite possible as someone recently pointed 
out that the only reason Slytherin House is allowed to exist is in 
order to keep all potentiall DE on display.

If it is true, I don't like it at all.
