It's been a long, long time since TOADMASTER I & II elbowed themselves
to the forefront of the members collective consciousness. 
Time for a re-assessment or refurbishment you think?
The Longbottoms -- pureblood aren't they?
Just who is 'Uncle Algy'? 
Is 'Gran' the supplier of the Droobles to Frank and Alice? After all, she's
probably been their one constant visitor since they were zapped. If that 
gum does contain mind-altering substances who would be least likely
to be suspected of drugging them?
Where is Trevor? Hatching another Basilisk perhaps?
Why did Crouch!Moody drag Neville off to his office after the class on
the Unforgiveables? Yes, we know he gave him a book, but was there
an ulterior motive? Checking on the security of whatever it is that Neville
has stashed away in a blocked off memory?
What did the Sorting Hat see in Neville that caused it to "take a long time
to decide"?

Oh, yes. A suspicious poster could have some fun and games putting
our Nev under the microscope.
