Now this is a bit of an interesting thingamabob you have here. It should be interesting seeing where this thing goes.
I have to agree with you about the things that you mention. My next publication will include a rant... topics include Harry's lessons (with both Snape and Dumbledore), Ron being useless, and JK raping her characters in much the same way that Southpark accused Lucas and Spielberg of raping Indiana Jones.
