Jen: Thanks guys, all of you reminded me of something: Just as we 
don't know what it's like to read the series with every bit of 
canon, backstory, etc., in place, JKR will never know what it's like 
to read these stories with only her anvil-size (or teeny-tiny <g>) 
clues, the red-herrings and interview tidbits she sparingly doles 
out to us. And thank god--I wouldn't have it any other way! It's 
really cool to be in on this process as it happens, instead of 
reading HP for the first time *knowing* DD dies, knowing Snape's 
motives and allegiance, knowing what Harry does in the end to defeat 
Voldemort (that's the only plot point I'm 100% certain about for 
Book 7, that Voldemort will be no more, hehe). My son asked me 
today, "Who was the Half-Blood Prince, anyway?" I paused before 
answering, realizing if I told him, he would never, ever be able to 
read the books the way I've done, with all the mystery and magic 
unfolding in order. But then he assured me he'll never like Harry 
Potter anyway, so he got the spoiler he deserved. :)
