Should Harry Potter die?

J K Rowling can't just come right out and say that it would be 
absolutely impossible to write an 8'th book in the series because 
then she'd be giving the entire game away, but in a recent biography 
of her by Marc Shapiro she comes about as close as you can get to 
saying that Harry Potter will die at the end of book 7 without 
actually saying so.

 "Although she would occasionally tease about never saying never when 
asked if she would follow Harry off to college the author has 
remained adamant that Harry Potter will end with book number seven. 
She admitted to feeling sad at the idea that Harry Potter will end 
someday and feels there will be a "bereavement" when she has written 
the last line on the final page but she insists that "There will be 
no Harry Potter midlife crisis or Harry Potter as an old wizard."

I stand by my prediction, poor Harry will not live past his 19'th 
birthday.
