Too Much Credit For Potter

Now, I realize that the Harry Potter books got millions of kids excited about reading. I understand the books have sold a bazillion copies. I know scientists recently named a dinosaur after the danged school. I get it, okay.

But when CNN runs an article claiming Harry Potter inspires vision of invisibility cloak, I just have to wonder if we’re not giving the boy wizard too much credit. As every sci-fi geek who ever hit puberty knows, plans for invisibility are inspired by schemes to get into the girls locker room. Geez.
