Great idea! But there must be some way of checking for polyjuice, 
because Voldemort states that the Ministry of Magic will be "checking 
and double checking identities" in GoF ch. 1 and sites this as the 
reason to delay the execution of his plans. Might Voldie be cautious 
enough to do some checking himself?
