Poor Ron, always overshadowed.  Come on, the guy knocked out a 
Troll, had the guts to go down the hatch after the sorcerer's stone, 
won the greatest chess game in Hogwarts history sacrificing himself 
in the process, hijacked a bewitched flying car, went into the 
forbidden forest following the spiders he so feared, escaped Agrog, 
went down the tunnel to the chamber of secrets, told someone he 
thought was a mass murderer that he'd have to go through him to get 
to Harry (on a broken leg to boot), flew to London on an an 
invisible flying horse-like creature, and went into the ministry of 
magic and stood against the Death Eaters (although admittedly he did 
not aquit himself well in that one).  What does the poor guy have to 
do to get some respect?
