Moreover, Rowling seems to put the notion of purity of blood as a 
secondary or tertiary theme in her book. In factors in many ways. 
I'm hoping and guessing that with each progression of books we find 
more about Harry's family and, thus, Petunia. I believe the websites 
are claiming that Rowling is going to bring out some stuff on the 
Dursley's that the reader's will not expect. Maybe our hunches are 
right!
