Okay, I've added two questions:

-How was Maggie Sr. connected to the Outsiders?
-How do the Laws of Magic work?

Does anybody have any suggestions on how to make the second question less vague?  It was the best I could come up with, given the amount of discussion in the Laws of Magic thread.

In deference to your nonbelief in the Black Council, I think all references to them can be pretty much replaced with "vague, probably antagonistic group of characters that may or may not be connected to one another". 

That's fine by me, but that is not what Harry says at the end of PG that he means by the Black Council, and I favour not using the term unless we mean what Harry says he means.

Do have any reason to assume this?  I don't see why she would care or even be aware of the former and the latter makes no sense to me.

For the first, it may have been Tera West, but seems unlikely.  Why would a wolfwif even know about security tapes?  For the second, I figured it just came with the Gatekeeper's job description in the NN. 

That's fine by me, but that is not what Harry says at the end of PG that he means by the Black Council, and I favour not using the term unless we mean what Harry says he means.

More accurately, I suppose, I'm using the term to refer to the individuals and events that Harry calls the Black Council.  Whether he's correct of not has no bearing on the terminology; all the strange events that seem to be connected to what Harry suspects is an organized conspiracy are put under "Black Council", whether or not it actually exists.  For simplicity's sake, it seemed the easiest way to organize the various conspiracy theories and vaguely connected mysteries.

 -- What's Maggie Sr.'s connection to Nicodemus?
Just throwing that out there. I don't think anybody's asked that question, yet. Could be relevent.

Possible, but the representation of Maggie in Harry and Thomas Soulgaze seems suspioucsly similar to a denarian shadow.

Has anybody wondered about Rudolph. How he went from an okay newbie cop to a finalist for the douche of the universe contest. And really, what the heck did Murphy and Harry ever do to him for him to behave as he does.
