Ginger, bouncing Hermione-like responds:

Oh, Oh, I know!  Pick me! 
OoP p. 193, US edition.  "...and an article on ancient runes, which 
at least explained why Luna had been reading the Quibbler upside 
down.  According to the magazine, if you turn the runes on their 
heads they revealed a spell to make your enemy's ears turn into 
kumquats."

Not that the ability to read upside-down isn't useful.  I find it 
helps in Scrabble.  So does knowing how to spell kumquat.  Must file 
that.

Hope that helps, Finwitch, and may I add that I have enjoyed your 
posts as of late and I'm sorry I didn't respond to more.  

Ginger, who is finally caught up!
