linlou:
 I posted an analysis of the prophecy a little over a month 
ago 
that addresses this as well as the rest of the prophecy. 

me:
I just read your post and the ones after it and they got me to 
thinking.  Personally, I've always felt that Harry wouldn't make it 
out of the series alive. (call it a gut feeling since I don't have 
much more concrete proof than whats been debated here) And remember 
that the protection that Lilly gave Harry happened when she 
sacrificed herself for him.  It could be that this self sacrifice 
could be the "power the Dark Lord knows not."  I mean, he clearly 
doesn't know squat about giving up ones life for a friend, he has no 
problem leaving his DEs out to dry.  At any rate, I'm starting to 
think that perhaps the "love that will defeat LV" that people have 
been alluding to could be the act of Harry sacrificing himself for 
LV, thereby showing his Tom Riddle side what true "love" really is 
and allowing the Dark Lord to be defeated and destroyed once and for 
all.

Just my two knuts..
