Jim:  No, the “LeFay” is something that gets added as an honorific in the wizarding community, it’s one of those kind of mixed names that you give somebody that is sort of a name that she’s earned, so it’s a bit of status, and it also means you’re insane. Which everybody thought Harry’s mom was, being a big-time explorer of Ways and hanging out with Faeries and generally kind of doing things that most wizards considered to be pretty crazily, stupidly dangerous. When you’re somebody who can live for three or four hundred years as long as nothing goes wrong, you tend to be a little conservative, really, you get a lot of benefit from that. And certainly, in Maggie’s case, she was bucking the trend, and we’ll probably get into a little bit more of why she was doing that later in the books.

Yeah, well, "thought was," and "is," are two different things...

Yeah the books don't have it.  I should probably site the source when I make certain statements.
No, you were right and I was mistaken. But it appears that crazy or not Jim has decided to plot it that way.

I agree.  I'd like to think she was crazy like a fox.  After reading the small amount there is on her, I wish she was alive in the books.  She sounds awesome.

Stole this from Reginald because it was so well put, and is true for me as well.

"I love this place. It was a beacon in the dark and I couldn't have made it through some of the most maddening years of my life without some great people here."  Thank you Griff and others who took up the torch.

She was not crazy when Harry saw her in his soul gaze with Thomas.

She was not incoherent, that's not the same thing thing as not being crazy.

Currently dealing with a backlog of games.

If you want me to type up a book quote or find a WoJ quote, send me a PM.

Rest in peace mdodd.

No, it is not, however at the same time, from the time she met Malcolm she seems perfectly rational.
The Council may have given her the "insane" tag because she questioned everything about them..
