Hi Lynn, someome else will have to explain the email question-I always 
go to the website to read all of the messages,
(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPforGrownups). That way I don't get 
hundreds of extra emails a weeek...

I have read the series more times than I can recall, maybe 6-7? I first 
read them right around the time the PoA movie came out. I heard it weas 
good, and wanted to see it. I tend to prefer books to movies so I 
decided to read the book first.

zgirnius:
Ditto. Not to mention, for discussing it online with other adults, or 
even reading it in the first place. (The kids are still too young to be 
a valid excuse).

zgirnius:
A cloth covering to put over a teapot to keep the tea in it warm longer.
It looks sort of like one of those quilted toaster covers popular in 
country-style kitchens, if you are familiar with those.
