Me:
My first reaction to the first prophecy that broke, was that it 
referred to Dudley! Might be crazy, but here's why I thought that--

According to the HP Lexicon, Dudley's birthday is somewhere 
around June 22nd. In my part of the world (America) & Harry's 
too, the summer solstice is usually on June 21st, but every so 
often, it falls on the 22nd. My birthday is June 21st, so when I 
was a kid I was always so happy that my birthday was on the first 
day of summer, which was also the last day of school in 
northeastern US. I nearly had to be sedated...but I digress. 
Anyhow, maybe the summer solstice fell on the 22nd in the year 
of Dudley's birth.

Now I don't know what the words mean...
"at the Solstice will come a new" (a new threat to the one who 
will have the power to vanquish the Dark Lord?)

"none will come after" (literal: big D is an only child OR maybe 
Dudley will be the only real threat to Harry ?)
How big of a role will some or all of the Dursley's play in the next 
two books? This theory sounds a bit crazy, but I immediately 
thought of Dudley when I read about the "smashed prophecy", so 
I thought I'd throw it out there.
