Me: Yeah you have to wonder if Voldemort did have children. As I read 
this a silly little idea came into my head. If I remember correctly 
JKR has commented in interviews on the apparent mistake that 
Voldemort is the last living *ancestor* of Salazar Slytherin, she 
said something to the effect of "maybe it wasn't a mistake." So what 
if Voldemort did have a son and named him after Salazar Slytherin? 
that would make him an ancestor of *this* Salazar Slytherin would it 
not? Silly idea I know, I don't believe it myself! Still its not 
totally impossible.

On another note and slightly off topic but relating to CoS, I was 
having a little fun with an Anagram creator the other night and typed 
in a bunch of Harry Potter names. One for Sirius Black was Basilisk 
Cur... how very odd! (websters tells me a cur is a monrel dog, among 
other not so nice things) Oh and this one is terribly amusing, if you 
take Lucius Malfoy's ego into consideration, he'd be the type to tack 
a title onto his name, one of his anagrams is A foul icy slum and if 
he's Lord Lucius, A foul icy slum lord! Now thats something to think 
about...

Tasha~ who needs to stop playing with the anagram maker ;)
