Sandra:
After a long lie down, my headache has finally passed... and after weighing
up everything that people have written (and I'm grateful to all of them) I no
longer know what day it is.
The example you gave about the road-crossing was working fine, but could
only actually work if you stopped on the way to the road to step forwards in
time, rather than back. It's the same with Harry - he can't go back in time to
save himself from the Dementors because there's no way he could survive
the attack in order to go back there. And that's why the story falls down...
anyway, I'm pleased to see that so many other people don't get it either,
although it's a bit sad that so few people notice such a monstrous loop hole in
the first place.
Thanks, Ginger, you're thoughts are appreciated! Sandra.
