One clue that I noticed in GoF is when Sirius is talking about seeing 
Barty Crouch Jr. in while he was in prison.  Sirius states 
specifically that he saw Barty being buried after he died, and this 
seemed like such a definite thing to say that I wondered if it would 
be contradicted.  (Kind of like how when you take a true or false 
quiz, a clue that something is false is if the statement includes 
words like "always" or "never.")  I, too, will go through OoP 
carefully and thoroughly.
