I can't say i am incredibly familiar with the books, and there are a few things that would be difficult to support this theory, because of Dumbledores support for "mudbloods", but don't you think it could have been a big cover-up?? He trained Riddle to become an accomplice who then became his rival?? And dumbledore wanted to keep harry under his control (without teaching him too much wizardry like Riddle), and also had control of the school, with perhaps the intention of destroying the school eventually??

I am going to give a few guidelines and I want YOU guys to write me a story! Think of each person's addition as a chapter! Please don't be lewd or anything, but other than that, go crazy! Have fun with it!

Characters (choose when to introduce): Kira, Damien, Rhia, Elizabeth, Ethan, (your own)

Setting: Classic Hollywood 1940s

Genre: ANYTHING!

Time travel is cool, characters dieing and new ones introduced are cool, anything is possible! Have fun!

What are your thoughts on Jean Toomers "Song of the Son"

Pour O pour that parting soul in song
O pour it in the sawdust glow of night
Into the velvet pine-smoke air tonight,
And let the valley carry it along.
And let the valley carry it along.
O land and soil, red soil and sweet-gum tree,
So scant of grass, so proligate of pines,
Now hust before an epoch's sun declines
Thy son, in time, I have returned to thee,
Thy son, I have in time returned to thee.
In time, for though the sun is setting on
A song-lit race of slaves, it has not set;
Though late, O soil, it is not too late yet
To catch thy plaintive soul, leaving, soon gone,
Leaving, to catch thy plaintive soul soon gone.
O ***** slaves, dark purple ripened plums,
Squeezed, and bursting in the pine-wood air,
Passing, before they stripped the old tree bare
One plum was saved for me, one seed becomes
an everlasting song, a singing tree,
Caroling softly souls of slavery,
What they were, and what they are to me,

I wrote a book that will be published soon. It is a critical examination of the arguments of the skeptics of parapsychology. In other words, I am debunking the debunkers. Which title do you think is catchier?

1) Parapsycholgy & the Skeptics

2) Scientific Heresy: Parapsychology & the Skeptics

Thank you in advance for your help.
