It's also published on the Lexicon. In fact, it was there for a week 
when Emerson saw it and suggested that we put it on both sites. The 
two versions of the letter should be pretty much identical, though. 
Emerson and I spent a couple of hours in an IM editing session the 
other night, going over my letter to make it more inclusive of both 
sites. He had a couple of questions he really wanted to add, too. 
Well, to be fair, we BOTH have a LOT of questions we'd love to add, 
but decided that they wouldn't get answered anyway. 

It's funny how many of the questions are things which fans have 
assumed they knew the answer to. For example, everyone assumes that 
Snape was in Slytherin. I know it seems glaringly obvious, but it 
never actually says so in the books...
