Sorry for shouting but

MAGIC IN THE HP WORLD IS NOT CONSISTENT BECAUSE IT IS THE MAGICAL
TECHNOLOGY OF AN IMAGINARY WORLD.


Erm, might I suggest you may be taking this a bit too seriously?

Of course, the more consistent JKR's "rules" of magic are, the more
enjoyable are the books - random inconsistent magic would be boring and
annoying. Of course, there may be a few mistakes or inconsistencies here and
there, but it's fun playing with what we've been told so far to try and
explain situations or extrapolate from them and possibly work out a few
clues for book 7. I'm sorry if you don't enjoy that but I don't think that's
grounds for shouting etc.

Perhaps we should draw this thread to a close before a flamewar starts :)
