i've been reading a lot lately -- about poaching and bushmeat, GIS and stats, and Philip Pullman's trilogy "His Dark Materials"... its a fantastic tale about the struggle of humanity to understand and control good and evil and its discomfort with the "the fall"... and it all revolves around a 12 year old girl... they've turned the first one into a movie "the golden compass" which comes out in december... it looks fantastic, like harry potter meets pirates of the caribbean... anyway, in the book, people of the girl's world have their souls represented on the outside of their bodies, their "daemons" -- and yes its pronounced demon but lets not get silly and start going heretical on me ;) -- so of course in the era of the world wide web you can go to the book's website and take a test and find out what your daemon is, what animal form your characteristics (in 20 questions) would take...
it's fun... and a great read... and looks like a great movie... so for all of you wondering what's after hp #7 and you haven't read this series, i'd recommend it... and then go figure out your daemon! :)
