 [ Snip of some really interesting stuff ]

Wow, take a few days off and...
>From JKR's interview I think it's quite obvious the staff have been
married and may have had children. However, why we don't see them
should be interesting.

However, we do see Hagrid romantically involved with the headmistress
of another school. Seems to me this may be a hint that the
"priesthood" of teaching isn't a celibate one.

Along the same line of thought... wonder how many children the school
loses to teenage pregnancy. Afterall you have what 20 adults watching
over several hundreds of students?

The thought of the wizarding gene dying out seems a bit odd since
there are plenty of mudbloods or halfbloods around. Seems the gene is
fairly common! Given how crowded classrooms seem to be and no mention
of class sizes shrinking in the books (think that'd be mentioned too)
I think the wizarding "gene" is safe and sound.

Distaiyi.
