Keith,

I didn't realize you had a fanfic really (I'm ficless until after 
book 7) - I didn't mean to bum you out or anything!  I do think there 
are still holes in my theory - there's definitely room for the 
possibility of a SuperHarry, it's just I didn't like the idea myself, 
so I set out to find an explanation that suited me. 
I have really enjoyed debating it, as it's given me a chance to flesh 
out my thoughts.  Hopefully someone will find some more holes to poke 
in it, or we can find another one to toss around.  I would be thrilled 
if it ended up being even remotely right, but I know there are still 
plenty of things that aren't explained.

Happy Thursday!
