I did an interview today with a Brazilian newspaper and one of the questions was “What was your favorite experience as a Harry Potter fan?” I thought about all the incredible things that I’ve been privileged to do, from visiting the film sets to exploring Britain to write a book about Potter places, but the best experience? That was working on the Lexicon website with Lisa and John and Bel and the others. That camaraderie and shared excitement and passion was the best by far. And I miss it.

    Well, though this comes months late from your original post date, I am saying it none the less.

    Thank you Mr. Vander ARk and to all that have put The Lexicon together and keeping it running all these years. I for one am very grateful to be able to have a place to go when I need to look something up, and have it easily referenced (and not have to paw my way through all seven books in the hopes of finding the miniscule item I am searching for). Further, I hope that The Lexicon will ALWAYS be available here because quite honestly, out of the hundreds if not thousands of times I’ve come here, I have encountered the rare error, and it has sent me into a panic, causing me to fear that the day has come that The Lexicon is no more (today for example, as I went from encountering “404 Error” to “Internet Explorer Cannot Open the Webpage” and I then scramble to try and find out WHY I cannot access this beloved site.

    And yes, this is an obvious attempt to suck up to all of you in the hopes of receiving some desperately needed reassurance that this beloved place is still needed by us, and I for one hope it never goes away. Yes, the books may all have been published, and the movies have all been released, but the fans are still writing, and still need to look up reference material here for their stories, or just look something up in order to settle a dispute between friends, lol.

    So once again, thank you to all of you for your continued time and effort to keep this site up and running.

    Just thank you. I would add more to that but it still wouldn’t make for all the appreciation I have for you.
