2. Click on the ponytail holder, which takes you to the room with the door,

then click on the Christmas tree in the mirror, then click on the presents and answer the riddles and trivia! There is where JKR tells us it's by tomorrow!

And I would NEVER post this unless I knew it was true, dear. :)

6. I am placing a bet on the Date: March 20 - Spring Equinox

Also, a very funny poem on waiting:

For two years we were waiting
hoping and anticipating
When would Jo complete her book?
(Is Snape good or a crook?)
How long would this work be?
(Does Ron love Hermione?)
Would it leave us on a cliff?
(Is Sirius really a stiff?)
How to get through that darned door?
(And what is up with Dumbledore?)
Now Christmastime is close at hand
Proclaim joy throughout the land
Jo is done, the book comes soon...
HOW LONG IS IT 'TILL JUNE?
Ah yes, in June we'll be in heaven,
But then the wait starts for book seven!

I am also betting that the announcement will be posted solstice time - 7:42 AM EST
