Development, maturation, perfectionment--these are not straight
line processes in real people, and we should not expect it in 
literary creations. "Three steps forward, two back" is a part 
of life; had JKR not depicted the kids thusly, we would have 
long ago dismissed them and her as totally unbelievable.

"The bicycle is the most civilized conveyance known to man.  
Other forms of transport grow daily more nightmarish. Only 
the bicycle remains pure in heart."--Iris Murdoch
