On the back of the English edition of PoS, there's a picture of 
Dumbledore, and he does have something odd on his forhead, where 
Harry's scar is, although it's quite blurred.

You know, it seems like a stupid suggestion, but maybe Dumbledore 
*is* Harry. Maybe he travelled back in time when he was an old man so 
he could meet his parents, but then got trapped or something? It 
would explain quite a bit (where he got the invisibility cloak from, 
perhaps why he had that triumphant look in his eye, why he's so fond 
of Hagrid, how he knows so much about Harry, all sorts of other 
things). It's quite unlikely, but it just occured to me today, I'm re-
reading PoS at the moment, and if you read it with that in mind, it 
actually does make a lot of sense. But I could weel be barking up the 
wrong tree completely...just a thought. And hey, it's fun coming up 
with these radical theoris;o)
