I don't think Arthur Weasley is a loner by choice, someone who prefers playing with artefacts to socializing. He always seems happy to have guests and is generally friendly, and I have the impression that he spends time with his wife and his children whenever he can. I believe he doesn't have many friends because he can't find many people in the wizarding world who share his interests (i.e. all things muggle); people raised in a magical environment generally seem a bit snobbish towards muggle stuff, and for muggleborns muggle stuff is mundane and ordinary rather than fascinating -even Hermione, when she realized that her schedule was too heavy, the only class she dropped apart from Divination was Muggle Studies, the class about muggle life from the magical world's perspective. Especially if he developped this interest early in his life, I can imagine him being shunned, mocked, or simply considered bizzare by the majority of his peers, thus having few friends -he was probably the Luna of his generation.

On to a very different subject:
when you talked about poor Harry, having to suppress the thing that is most natural to him (his magic), I couldn't help but see this as a metaphor to homosexuality, and how homosexual people are often expected to suppress their nature while having to listen to idiots talking about it being their choice. Harry is even in some sort of a closet when we first meet him. I'm not saying that Jo Rowling wrote the entire series with magic-as-a-metaphor-for-homosexuality in mind, I'm just saying this particular part could be interpreted this way.

Returning to the previous discussion of Britishisms vs Americanisms, one of my favorite "what, what?" moments of British slang comes from chapter 4 of CoS. British paperback, p. 38:

"[Percy] was already dressed, his Hogwarts prefect badge pinned to his knitted tank top."

...wait, he's wearing a *what?*

American paperback, p. 44:

"...pinned to his sweater vest."

Oh.

I remember it threw me off quite a bit at the immediate mental image of Percy wearing what an American would call a knitted tank top; however, I think we can all appreciate that Percy rocks a sweater vest at age sixteen and to the breakfast table.

On the random topic of strawberry-peanut butter ice cream: they actually sell small cartons of it in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Universal. A friend of mine did buy it once. It looked more like strawberry ice cream with frozen peanut butter pieces in it. I tried a spoonful and it was... interesting. The strawberry part was very sweet and reminded me of cotton candy. The combination was quite strange/ If you are looking for dessert at the Wizarding World, I would save the money (and calories) for a frozen butterbeer or a chocolate cauldron cupcake!

Back to the subject of Floo Powder, I don't think you would be able to see much of someone who was using the Floo Network and went by your grate. First of all, it would go by so quickly that you would barely get to catch a glimpse of them. Second of all, you would probably have to peer underneath the logs to see them appear.
