Hey. I was trying to stay away from HMS Harmony site, but the lure of stupid is too great for my resolve. Anyway, they reacted on the latest update of JKR site. Our lovely C*** was leading the parade:
q>Yep, she's updated her website and completely ignored the situation that has arisen out of the fandom. I suppose this shows what she really thinks of us (or doesn't think). I'm so disgusted with that woman. I am officially NOT a Harry Potter fan anymore. She insults us in the book, in that interview, and then just ignores us completely. God, I'm so disgusted. WHAT is her problem? She owes her fans an apology. The woman has no decency whatsoever. She's frankly not worth the time.</q>

Then rjade brings the issue of forged signed copied sold on e-bay, implying that JKR wanted to sell such copies herself - as later another poster said "Don't buy those things, buy my book, feed more money into me!" (I wonder if they ever considered that JKR signes books for free).
Thereader instantly swears that he/she only reads pirated copies of the "utter garbage that was Harry Potter and the Half-Arsed Prince - which, I will hasten to add, I didn't pay for". Hmm... actually buying a book would ensure that you read the real book, not some crap...

Anyway, I thought it was amusing. Ikuko
