:D I just thought of something totally unrelated to the chapter, thinking about genetics. Is Harry full-blooded magic, meaning he is magical from both parents, or half-blooded magic, meaning he gained magic from one parent but not the other? This is taking into assumption that magic is an inheritable trait like eye or hair color.... and that it is dominant (M) rather than recessive (m).... M | m M| MM | Mm m| Mm | mm
... and looking at this again, magic would HAVE to be the recessive gene if it is inheritable. Otherwise there would be a lot more wizards and witches whose parents are both Muggles, like Hermione. I really should have went into Biology.
