Carol, still wondering why no one else (other than Pippin!) considers
Black's method of entering Hogwarts in PoA an unsolved mystery worth
investigating



Sherry now:

Personally, I never thought about it, and even now with all the discussion,
it still doesn't seem important at all.  My feeling is that JKR didn't worry
about how Sirius got in to the castle.  It was only important that he did
get in.  I bet she never thought more about it except in a general way.  She
seems to be that way about things sometimes, such as being surprised people
didn't figure out how Harry got the map back after GOF.  I expect that the
how of Sirius entering the castle will never be explained, because it isn't
important to the rest of the story.  and if it is, then we'll find out in
the next book.
