SSSusan:
Now *there's* a thread I could sink my teeth into.  I don't agree 
with Eggplant that this is JKR's Single Biggest Error, but I can't 
say that right off the top of my head I'd be able to put forth what 
I think that SBE was.  I would really enjoy seeing other people's 
nominations.  
 
Anybody been dying to get an SBE nomination off his/her chest??

Well, for the biggest inconsistency in the plot, I guess I have to 
say non-use of Veritaserum at Sirius' trial . Sure, tightly 
regulated drug and all that, but if not at such trial then when 
exactly is it supposed to be used?

Is that the type of error you meant, Susan or were you just asking 
about ANY Flint?

Oh, and I would like to disagree with the the assertion that Time - 
turner introduction was a mistake PER SE. I consider it to be one of 
most flawless, elegant introduction of the time-travel theme in the 
fantasy books EVER.


JMO,

Alla
