I agree with that.  I was basically just referring to how it has 
kept him safe the last 15 years.  And I like the point someone else 
brought up about what if Petunia or Dudley is killed?  Does that 
nullify the blood-effect?  Anyway, when he arrives at Hogwarts in 
his seventh year, I'm seriously hoping it won't matter by the end of 
it whether or not he can go back to the Dursleys.  He never goes 
back during the year anyway, and with Voldemort gone, shouldn't 
matter.  That is of course assuming Dumbledore is always around as 
well.
