Petunia (was: Evans Family

I think we all can agree that there is loads more to Petunia than we've been 
told so far.  What interested me was Petunia's near surrender to the reality 
of magic when Harry told her about V coming back....she reacted in a bit of a 
panic, showed actual concern.  She definitely knew something. 

We already know that Harry's being able to call the place where his mother's 
blood resides as "home" is the magic that keeps him protected while he's 
there, and it's been suggested at least once that perhaps if Petunia (and Dudley) 
were knocked off, then Harry would lack that protection.  What I'm wondering is 
*if Petunia knows that too*---did she figure it out already? or been warned 
already?

Which brings me to another issue....the threat at the train.  I'm not sure I 
buy the idea that Hermione was behind it....I'm starting to wonder if Harry's 
being asked to stay in close touch (and to be allowed to do so freely) with 
the OotP group is so the Order can get as much info as they can get from Harry 
on what's going on there for the safety of the Dursleys as much as 
Harry's--assuming that the loss of Petunia and Dudley will mean the end of Harry's 
protection. 

And maybe the demise of the Dudleys is where Mark Evans will come into 
play....

My apologies if this was already pieced together and discussed ad nauseum...
