Something I've been meaning to put forth is that I think Fred and George are
going to 
be highly useful in Book 7. There seem to have been many hints dropped in
several of 
the books about how despite their playful goofy natures, these guys can do
some 
seriously good and inventive magic. I really expect them to come up with
something 
important for Book 7. Does anyone else feel this way?

actually, i've been thinking about that recently, too.  i've been trying to
reread HBP.  i tend to only go so far and then come to a screeching halt,
since i know what is coming.  Same reaction I have to OOTP.  But anyway,
i've been marveling at the talent the twins must have.  how on earth did
they do so badly on their OWLS?  All their products show great skill in
things like charms, transfiguration and even potions.  of course, there have
been a lot of brilliant people and great inventors who were not educated in
terms of someone like Hermione would consider being educated.  They do think
outside the box, and I think they must really be quite brilliant.
