In Your Inbox

So the Ministry of Magic has finally gotten around to using email. Now that that those paper airplanes aren't flying around all over the place, let's see what everyone's talking, erm, emailing about.

2. A Request for help

Harry,

I'm afraid Ron hasn't quite been able to grasp the concept of email, and seeing as he's more likely to listen to you than a tech support wizard or me, I was wondering if you'd be able to help him along? It's really amazing how they've integrated the muggle system with ours, I'm hoping that will make it very easy for everyone to adapt. It was easier for you and me, seeing as we grew up with the internet and already are familiar with it. Ron, on the other hand, worries me.

Thanks so much,

Hermione Weasley

P.S. Oh, are you and Ginny still coming over for dinner tonight?

Hermione,

Yeah, I see the reason behind your concern. He's already nearly blown the head off of the technical guy who came down earlier, poor bloke. I've managed to calm him down and helped him through sending an email, it should be in your inbox. I hope you're right about everyone adapting; I have a feeling Kingsley and the tech wizards are going to be getting a lot of grief for the next few weeks. Oh dear, somebody must have sent Ron an email, he's yelling and feebly trying to hide under the desk. Better go help him before he goes into hysterics.

P.S. Sure, we'll swing by at eight.
