I really hope that some of those crazed H/H (also known as the ship that sank) ers check this out, and can see how mature you are being, and will try and be mature and polite in response.

Thank you, CornedBee. I enjoy your posts at the SugarQuill very much and I think this was a great letter to the H/H shippers that have been rude to JKR.
