Geoff:
Maybe but the fact it's 21/07/07 is merely because its a Saturday. 
Don't tell me JKR worked this out umpteen years ago....

> Well as the one that posted the release date of 070707, I feel hurt....I wasn't a theorist, 
my girlfriend works for a bookstore in the US and that is the date that they had been 
given!  Which apparently went unquestioned because she had said something about the 
number 7 being special or something to her....No theory fact! Obviously they told stores 
that so that they geared up and interestingly enough you are not only right about 3 x 7 
=21 if you look at it that way but here is another 7 creeping in.....the expected release day 
was the 7th....now the 21st...exactly 14 days after the expected! Coincidence? I don't 
know!?

Geoff:
I'm rather amused because the "sevens" theorists are reminding 
me of Fudge and the "Daily Prophet" refusing to accept Voldemort's 
return and branding Dumbledore and Harry as lunatics in OOTP. :-))

If there's another 7 creeping in why not have 14/07/07 or 28/07/07?
