More on anti-Potter attack

[Nancy Lieber <nlieber@execpc.com>]

Today, at my favorite fast food spot for a morning pick-me-up with
conversation, another regular was sitting in the "bible-toter's" spot
(read previous post)--he happens to be the about to retire minister at a
nearby Methodist Church. When I spied him I asked jokingly where was he
yesterday when I needed him--and before asking me why I needed him he
volunteered that he had purchased all the Potter books based on my
previous enthusiasm for them. He is a former English teacher and as we
filled him in on the anti-Potter attack, he explained that he was of the
opinion that it was his and others intellectual responsibility to read
what is controversial in order to form an independent opinion. God bless
him. Reason and religioun.

On another note I can hardly believe how many students I am running in
to who have finished Potter IV already (most in one day). Too bad they
didn't slow down and enjoy the "scenery" along the way. I am enjoying a
nice slow meander through Potter IV while swaying slowly in my hammock
under my shade trees. Ah summer, ah reading!
