Actually....I do.  I think that would be a fantastic ending (well...not 
fantastic as in good....) to the series.  LV and Harry have one last battle, 
and they cast two opposing spells.  When the spells hit, they have the force 
of a nuclear bomb - everyone dies.  Or if Harry finds some sort of spell to 
eliminate evil and it isn't specific enough.  Everyone has *some* evil in 
them, and the spell would, in my crazy theory, wipe everyone out.  I don't 
*want* everyone to die, but I can't help but think that that would be the 
best way to ensure the purity of a series - if nobody's left, nobody can 
write some crappy book/movie about it years later. *coughHalloweencough*  
That's an amazing emotional journey: we come to love these characters and 
then they're tragically ripped away from us.I've always said that if I write 
a book, that's how it will end.
