|  Just because people CAN'T function properly without assistance doesn't mean that don't WANT to function as they once did... I remember being able to participate in a DE bout without ever getting winded... and I'm not even in the 'old' range....

| I seem to recall reading somewhere that she created Dumbledore from the idea of a bee. Dumbledore is another name for a bee. She thought of him as always humming.
Which for some reason, reminds me of The Wall.
Couldn't tell you why...

Nah, there was that one in the order of the phoenix...can't remember his name...described as black.
Also remember HP is notionally set in Britain and over the country as a whole we don't have as many black people as in the US. I believe it's 6 per cent (but am prepared to be corrected)

Neinteen, do be cautious where you go poking.
