quote: “Larry Potter and His Best Friend Lily.” It is a story about the sadness a young boy feels when he is forced to wear glasses for the first time. The famous Harry Potter is also a young boy who wears glasses.
She would've had to have been pretty dumb to copy something like "Larry Potter". That's so obvious, it's seems like it would have to have been a mistake. Plus, almost no one doubts her genius in those works; she's smart enough to come up with a different name.

They're not Muggles, they're minnipins! (it's a bad description... read the books, you'll see what I mean)

In the decision to find fraud, it mentions that the singular use of 'Potter' following 'Larry' is in a post1993 typeface which wasn't available when Stouffer's 'boy wearing glasses' story was allegedly printed.

Now that it's over, can I stop boycotting the frozen dinners, or do I have to keep it up until she goes bankrupt?

I think it's funny that Harry Potter is now referred to as "The Famous Harry Potter".
There's a scene in the Beatles movie "Help" where the Beatles are in Scotland Yard and the policemen who's supposed to protect them says. "So you're the famous Beatles." And a Beatle (I don't remember which) is obviously annoyed and says. "So this is the famous Scotland Yard."
