I totally refuse to accept the DOS (Death of Sirius).  I formally 
request registration papers and all necessary documentation to launch 
my own theory craft, to be provisionally christened the U.S.S. SIND 
(Sirius is NOT Dead!) until someone can come up with a name that fits 
the acronym DENIAL.  This ship will be dedicated to the theory that 
Sirius is not dead, just waiting beyond the veil to be rescued.  So 
Dumbledore and Lupin said he's dead; both of them have made major 
mistakes before.

Laura:  Yes, yes, thank you.  Here's what threw me off: what's with 
the veil?  It's never really explained.  Besides the fact that 
Bellatrix hit him with what was described as a RED beam of light 
(read: NOT green).  Sure, thanks JKR, just go an confuse us all.  
Then he falls "behind" this veil.  This same veil is in the...

time to make a canon point because she can't quite remember the exact 
phrase, having read it at about 3:30 this morning]....Death Chamber.  
Now isn't that uplifting?

So my question is- what is behind/in/whatever this veil?  Why is it 
in the Death Chamber?  I want details!  *deep breath*

Honestly, the tears didn't start coming until Dumbledore was 
explaining things to a raging Harry, because JKR conveniently never 
told us that he died.  Well, not exactly.  I don't like having to 
infer my deaths, thank you.
