    I trust J.K. Rowling. Surely she must know how to write (or at least her editors do)? :p But yeah, I've never understood the "don't start a sentence with 'and'."

    “And he's dealt with as much as most in the Order,' said Sirius, 'and more than some.”
    Excerpt From: Rowling, J.K. “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.”

    I just see it far too often. And sometimes it really helps punctuate a point.

    So start-of-a-sentence-and for the win!
