List elves, kindly forgive what is to follow. It's not OT, really,
but I recognize that it is my airing of a pet peeve.
We all boo-boo from time to time--heaven knows I've deleted a fair
number of my own posts here and have been red-faced over errors in
logic--but if I might, I would like to point out the following:
cannon - a large, artillery gun, usually on wheels; a firearm for
discharging heavy shot with great force
canon - sanctioned or accepted body of related works; the authentic
works of a writer
JKR has produced a canon, not (as far as we know) a cannon. :-)
Please forgive if this sounds pompous or snarky; it's not intended
to. Just a friendly neighborhood Public Service Announcement.
