Talisman, wanders in looking slightly disheveled and sporting a new 
tattoo (strictly washable):

So, Rowling is in for a round of debunking, eh? And, it seems she's 
heard a bit of whisper about "time-traveing" characters, but she's 
willing to put associated theories to rest by assuring us that "NONE 
of the characters in the books has returned from the future."

Well, does anyone else hear the roar of what she isn't saying?  Why 
not just say that none of the characters (excepting the obvious)in 
the books is a visitor from another time?  Why not rule out someone 
from the past?

Is such a traveler amongst us now? Or, are they yet to appear? 

Sirius? Especially if his demise was contemplated.  Or, how about 
some interesting folks from Godric's Hollow who had a hunch they 
might buy it?  

Not sure I'd like it.  Has sort of a "last message from Jor-El and 
Lara to baby Superman" feel to it.  

I'll have to chew on this later, as it seems I've got a good many 
replies to old posts to get out. 


Talisman, just saying: it's good to hear that Snape likes 
crosswords, too.  (We are "so" right for each other.)
