I am a firm believer that Harry is the Heir to Gryffindor (perhaps 
Slytherin too). But what I can't reconcile is, if Harry is, then why 
doesn't everyone know about it? Wouldn't Rita say something in the 
paper..."Harry Potter, heir of Gryffindor, regularly cries into his 
pillow every night over his parents' deaths..."

I think JK is going to throw a curve ball here. When things seem one 
way, something comes out of left field.. (Scabbers is a what??) Maybe 
that's where Slytherin comes in. Oh, I don't know. All this is 
conjecture. I just want to know the truth!! June 21st is too far 
away! 

I also don't think Dumbledore will tell everything... I mean, he 
will, but some of it will be in riddles that we will discover the 
answers to in the following books (after JK makes us think one thing 
and then proves us wrong, again).
