Hee!  Sap that I am, this wouldn't bug me, but I know you're not 
alone in detesting it!

SSSusan:
I've seen several people who have remarked that they'd just NOT like 
this scenario, and I see their point (though, for me, I can still see 
it working out).  So I'd like to ask phoenixgod and others who just 
do not want to see Harry lose his powers, would you be okay with his 
losing his life instead?  In other words, in your minds, would death 
be a better fate for Harry than life w/o his magic?  

I absolutely agree with phoenixgod that Harry's given ENOUGH, which 
is why my REAL preference is for him to live *and* still have his 
powers, but I'm a little afraid to believe too strongly that it'll 
happen.  So I'm curious, *if* it's gotta be loss of life or loss of 
powers, which you'd select?

I took a quick peek and didn't see anything, but have we ever had a 
poll at HPfGU to see how many think:  a) Harry will die; b) Harry 
will live but lose his powers; or c) Harry will live and keep his 
powers intact?  Might be interesting to see how many believe JKR will 
give us a "happy" ending.
