Finwitch (doesn't question):

Why should they? Sirius *told* them his brother was killed - on 
Voldemort's orders (as Sirius doesn't think Voldemort considered him 
worthy to be killed by Voldemort in person...). Why would they consider 
Sirius' dead brother to be in his place? Metamorphmagus maybe...

Kemper also suprised:
I think we all thought of Regulus because the note addressed the 'Dark Lord', not 'Lord Voldemort', not 'Tom'.  We, and Harry, know that the only people who call Lord Voldemort the 'Dark Lord' are Death Eaters. After that it was just a matter of going down our mental lists of Death Eaters, past and present.

Kemper, who can't wait to post on the Main tomorrow...
