>> I just had a thought on the prophesy, shoot me down if you like, 
but what if LV didnt actually want the prophesy? What if he wanted to 
know who had made the prophesy?>>

Fraid I'm going to have to shoot you down, Sue. He could have found 
out who made the prophecy at any time, even just by using Imperio'd!
Bode. The prophecy has initials written on the outside, which I think 
(no handy canon) Hermione points out to Harry - her attention 
attracted because Harry's initials are on it. So are ABPWD and SPT. 
Now, ABPWD (apologies if that's in the wrong order)is fairly easy to 
work out, especially for The Evil Formerly Known As Riddle, and it 
wouldn't take a huge leap of imagination to work out who SPT was, 
seeing as aforementioned ABWPD (that looks better) would obviously be 
keeping her close to prevent just such an event happening. I imagine 
that first point of call would be the Hogwarts staff register 1979-95.
