Only, I don't think Ron would be taking potions again (while it's been revealed that Harry WILL, but I forget where). I know it'll probably be a while before classes start, but I was just wondering. -------------------- Draco Malfoy - "seco solus celsus"

Snape must be shocked! As fr the image issue, I've no idea what is going on with that. Let's jsut say I'm still in the "experimenting" phase of running a site on invisionfree. I'll try to fix the image blocking, if i can. -------------------- Tricia, the Racewalking Hobbit of Justice, Bearer of Cheese

Thanks! I found that out from the transcript of J.K's Edinburgh Book Festival. She doesn't say it outright (the full transcript is at [url]http://www.jkrowling.com/textonly/news_view.cfm?id=80[url]) but she says

QUOTE

{question}How do you make up the weird names for the potions?

{JK}Sometimes invention gives out. I was writing the latest chapter of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince and I needed to come up with another name for another potion. I sat for ten minutes at the keyboard then I just typed �X�. I thought, �I�ll go back and fill that in later.� Sometimes you really want to get on with the story. Sometimes names just come to you, which is a great feeling, but sometimes it is difficult and you have to batter your brain for a while. Sometimes it comes to you while you are washing up or on the loo or something. My husband is quite used to me saying, �Wait!� then running up stairs and writing something down.

While it isn't concrete evidance, I say its enough. If she's writing about potions where she has to think up a new name... it might not be, but I'd say that was evidance enough.

Hermione Granger, Prefect, Gryffindor 6th year Group: Members Posts: 78 Member No.: 2 Joined: 20-September 04	Question is, what have Hermione and Ron chosen as their careers. I've always imagined Hermione as a teacher, or working for the ministry on Muggle affairs or something. -------------------- ~Hermione Granger, 6th year Gryffindor and a Prefect at that.

It struck me that they'd both be aurors with Harry, but I guess that's not possible now what with Ron supposidly not taking potions. -------------------- ~Harry Potter; 6th year Griffindor and the most famous boy in school.
