Harry when he leaves Hogwarts.  She replies "What makes you think he 
lives" or something like that.


Me  I personally don't think there is any doubt that Harry lives if for no other reason than that this series was written for a younger audience! (It's just a testiment to it's quality that us older folks love it too!) I don't think after leading everybody through the 7 years of trails and tribulations of Harry Potter, the author is going to cause the trama and consternation in the readers by killing him off!  Heck, even The Lord of the Rings didn't really kill Frodo off like that (he just sailed off for the paradise of the havens after a while) and that was intended for a different audience then this origionally was.  It may make for a great Greek tragedy, but I'll bet the store Harry Potter lives!

I liked her comment questioning whether he lives or not!  No way she's going to ruin the ending of the storyline by announcing that he WON'T die!  Huggs Becky  PS It's be tragic enough when in Book 5 coming out Hagrid dies!
