*peeks up from under her rock* Hi, first post. ^_^ I just wanted to 
add in something here...

But Harry has to be special in some other way (most likely in 
ability) because there had to have been a reason for Voldemort to 
even bother trying to kill him when he was a baby, which caused the 
connection you mention (that makes Harry special) in the first place. 
Remember, at the end of the first book, Harry asked why Voldemort had 
tried to kill him (right?), and Dumbledore said something along the 
lines of (sorry, don't have my first book with me; my brother's 
borrowing it), "Alas, the first question you ask me I cannot answer 
right now." Something like that. This suggests that Harry isn't ready 
to know why Voldemort tried to kill him and I, for one, interpret it 
as having to do with Harry's magical abilities. I'd rather Harry be 
highly powerful than be the heir of Gryffindor (or something like 
that)....

Did that make any sense? I wish I had the first book right now. ^_^ 
Anyway, couldn't help but add in; sorry if it's already been brought 
up. I do that sometimes. :) *crawls back under her rock*
