FYI, I won't be able to post voting results for procedurals/comedy threads until around 2:30 my time (11:30 board time) tomorrow.
I'm just waiting to see if I pass out. Long story.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Question - how many people out there are still unspoiled for Harry Potter 7? Is it time to close the Book Club thread and move the discussion back to Literary?
