I was just wondering whether there had been any discussion about the 
nature of magic.
For instance, we have Dumbledore "drawing" up a chair at the court in 
OOtP, yet Molly and the house-elves
seem to have to physically cook edible food rather than simply conjuring 
it. Is there a contradiction
here or have i missed something?
