Author's Note:
Yesterday morning, the war against the Iraq has begun.
My first reaction was to stop updating altogether until the end of the war.
I deeply regret that civilized nations do not seem to esteem it necessary to utilize every last possibility of solving conflicts in peace.
Living in a country that has already experienced what happens when a fanatical leader tries to force his idea of a 'better world' upon others,
I fear for the future of us all.
I don't want me or my children to see a Third World War.
But as the past weeks have shown, there is nothing common people could do to prevent one, for those who own the power just do as they please.
We can only hope that the fights will stay limited to the Iraqi region.
After rethinking it, I decided to continue my stories.
The people of the HP-Universe would not want despair and darkness to take over.
As Harry Potter put it in GoF, especially in dark times to come, we can all use a good laugh.
I just hope I could impress the seriousness of the present events upon some people's minds with this note....
I couldn't help but write it, because the whole affair really worries me greatly.
Greetings,
Scheckie
