It seems to me, too, that SPEW was a bad example of a good idea, to 
recoin a cliche. There should be, in HBP or #7, a proper revolution of 
magical creatures. ("Do you hear the magical creatures sing? Singing a 
song of angry magical creatures. It is the music of a magical creatures 
who will not be slaves again!" There's a filk in there somewhere.) 

Other things that I predict will *NOT* happen in HBP: 

Voldemort will not die (unless he's just the front man for the *real* 
evil guy, see previous posts about "if Voldemort is the monkey, who is 
grinding the organ?") 

Harry will not die (unless the last book has a really different title.) 

Hermione and Ron will not die yet (unless Luna and Neville get really 
interesting.) 

Umbridge will not be the DADA teacher. 

The Centaurs will not come skipping into Hogwarts, offering free pony 
rides. 

House Elves will not turn into Gremlins if you feed them after 
midnight. 

Scabbers will not come out of hiding because he was just an ordinary 
rat after all. We will not find Scabbers and Crookshanks curled up, 
napping together. 

Aberforth Dumbledore will not marry the goat because they have a kid. 

Azkaban will not become a minimum-security, Club Fed lock-up with 
macrame classes and Christian rehabilitation counseling.  

It not was all just a dream.

P.S. -- You all are beginning to compile your predictions lists, right? 
We are going to have some sort of contest for the most accurate 
predictions about HBP, right?
