Remus = James? NOT

Morgan says:
"The whole Lupin is James argument has always been pointless to me, 
JKR explicitly stated that we will never see James Or Lilly alive 
again. I think thats a pretty solid reason to think that James is 
NOT 
Remus.

Hi, I'm Carolyn and rather new to the list and haven't posted 
anything yet.  This caught my eye so here it goes.
Now, I'm not a fan of the Lupin is James theory, however, I feel I 
must point out that Dobby's clue about the Chamber of Secrets saying 
that it was not You-Know-Who turned out to be a clue that it was his 
16 year old memory.

HP and the CoS U.S. pg. 339
"I've just got one question, Dobby," . . .
"You told me all this had nothing to do with He-Who-Must-Not-Be-
Named, remember? Well -"
  "It was a clue, sir," . . . "Was giving you a clue.  The Dark 
Lord, before he changed his name could be freely named, you see?"

So realistically, saying we wouldn't see a LIVE lily or james 
doesn't really cover James switched in Lupin's body (because we 
can't technically "see" James if he's Lupin) OH well. I actually 
hope this isn't true.  Just decided it was time for me to be useful.
