Alla:

leaving all the post in there, because I need to clarify and 
basically to say that yes, you are right Renee.

Nowhere did I say that because Hermione is JKR admitted alter-ego she 
cannot have any flaws.

What I **did** say is that this is the reason that she won't turn 
evil. I guess it can be considered a flaw, but personally I consider 
evilness to be um, the ultimate flaw. So, to hopefully make myself 
clear I am betting that Hermione can have **any** flaws, except 
becoming the follower of Voldemort.

Moreover, I thought I was expressing myself clear enough that Ieven 
would see a potential of Hermione doing something very bad, but for 
the fact that she is JKR alter-ego.

So, certainly am not asking for Hermione Sue and do not think she 
exists :)

Alla
