         ...The guide does not give Voldemort. It 
just uses "he-who-must-not-be-named". I actually just listened to 
books one and two while on vacation these last two weeks for the 
first time. (Jim Dale) Previously, I had only read them. It struck 
me as stange to not hear the T pronounced in Voldemort because if I 
didn't already know it was there there would be a letter missing for 
Tom Marvolo Riddle at the end of COS. For those of you who heard the 
books before you read them, was this an issue for you? Just 
wondering.
*************************
The  "T" wouldn't be missing from Tom's name anagram simply because it isn't pronounced.  Many words contain silent letters, but to be spelled correctly,  they must be included. Just look at my name.....!
