Without reading the whole thread yet- it is a place just about any out of towners go to this time of year, if they were in SoCal, and locals alike like me.

I will be there in the next 7 days just don't know which yet. Could just be that, tourism.

I have heard the same type of thing. J k Rowling is the stop. She has all the power in the franchise. Perhaps her mind could be changed.

My advice to her would be to make sure if she ever does do a pinball, it is very good, not a reused play field or anything close to that.

Just look at this primo bookshelf space at target.

For sure
I Will not miss it!

"All told, Rowling created a $15 billion brand. While her net worth is a fraction of that, as it is estimated to be just less than $1 billion, that's still enough to make her the world's richest author. While Rowling's last Harry Potter book was released in 2007, she continues to earn royalties from book sales.Jun 18, 2015"

i grabbed this off a google search.

1 billion today.

sesames treat techno.

Also, with the way j k Rowling feels about pinball, time will need to pass. If I could talk to her I would change her mind about pinball. Give me time...
