I know that this has been discussed before- but I would like to bring 
the topic up again.  IMO, the trio (Harry, Ron, and Hermione) can be
considered the equivalent of the Marauders ( James, Sirius, and 
Remus).  With Harry, of course, taking the position of his father, 
James.  The argument then can be made about the other two positions 
mentioned.  IMO, I believe that Ron is the equivalent of Sirius.  My 
argument for this is based on their similarities in character- high-
tempered-prone to act before thinking, but completely loyal to their 
friends.  IMO, I also believe that Hermione is the equivalent of 
Remus.  My argument for that consists of the intelligence both of 
these characters possess.  Also, they did seem to make a connection 
to each other on some level in PoA.  Hermione and Remus seem to be 
more logic oriented-but still able to act quickly when called upon to 
do so.  But what about Pettigrew- who is his equivalent?  Are we 
suppose to see Pettigrew as a hanger-on who was subsequently allowed 
into the Marauders?  Who among the Trio's contemporaries can be seen 
in this light?  Neville? (who Hermione champions constantly) Creevy? 
(who seems to worship Harry).  I would like to hear some opinions.
