I am so happy. There is a gay couple in canon after all.

Gary B. --

My apologies in advance to those thrilled by this 'news'.

This sort of post-canon Rowling patter is exactly why I never read
any of her interviews intending to gain insight into her writings.

I believe in the school if it is not in the black words on the page
of one of the seven books, it "ain't true Joe" (okay, I reversed the
old baseball Shoeless Joe cliche here).

She wants to thrill and lecture.  I guess that she was disappointed
that so many failed to 'see' this truth about DD so she had to help
us realize it.  Perhaps her efforts are designed to overturn the old
principle that an author loses control of her message once the book
is published.

Plus it provides more fire to the debate and more book sales since
DH has nearly fallen off the top ten best seller lists.

Is there more manipulative DD in JKR than Hermione Granger?

Gary B.  -- A great fan of the books themselves but wonders about
the clever author.
