New FAQ on Jo's site.

A bit surprising given that it's only a skip and a jump until
the new book comes out. Mind you it makes up for it by
posing a couple of questions the answers to which won't
have us breathless on the edge of our seats (is the golf-ball
washer on the cover of the US ed. a pensieve in disguise;
how do members of the Order communicate with each other?)

The third (will our eponymous hero continue with Occlumency
either with Snape or someone else) is a bit more interesting
but doesn't compare with the questions that need answering
about *past* lacunae. Being told yes or no would hardly raise 
me to a fever pitch of excitement when we'll be able to read all
about it within days of the answer appearing on the site, if the
speed of response is anything close to average. 

Yet there are some questions that have been on my little list for 
years with no guarantee that they'll ever be answered.
Is it any wonder that I sometimes get disgruntled?
