Tesha:

To Betsy HP, wynnleaf and Magpie mostly...
Sorry if my burning the candle at both ends has had this effect - my
foot is in my mouth and my hands are all waxy...
I meant nothing personal in any post I've made. For instance:

1. My husband's ex is a fine person - the point I was trying to make
albeit badly is -  she can take a few boxes of tooth picks and call
them a 2x4.

2. Did you ever think that you just know more about Hermione than you
do many of the other characters? We see their world through Harry's
eyes and he only found out things that came to the open - like that
Draco would use the hippogriff's natural behavior to have his father
force the most painful removal of the beast, hurt Hagrid and thus
Harry and friends? What else has been done that we know nothing about?

3. My daughter would probably behave like Hermione if we were in the
same circumstance, right down to the worst, and I would love and
support her in it all. Oh, I'd scowl and rant and rave a bit, but I'd
be proud my little kid would be so resourceful and independent.

4. I do believe you are taking characters, who are in the case we
started with 12 years old, and asking them to behave as adults.

5. I also believe that you are taking apart story lines to prove your
points. Hermione had to make the polijuice potion because JKR needed
an excuse for the 3 to become familiar with the bathroom where 2 would
later enter the CoS.

6. I'm going to shut up now and go finish the Aberforth robe I'm
making for our Hogwarts Mystery - and get this wax off my hands....
