Hi all,

I am a newcomer here.... been searching in the wrong places I think, to 
discuss HP!! Should have joined up here long back....

Anyways, I do not know if this point has been discussed before (if so, 
would somebody direct me to those posts?) -- but I have been wondering 
for a very long time as to why HP is said to be half-blood!!! He is not 
a half-blood ... just because his mom is a muggle-born, does not make him half-blood.... 
both HIS parents are magic .. so he is a pure blood! 
Whereas LV's father was a muggle, so LV is half-blood!! no?

bye for now, 
scam.
