OK then














Hi all. Just wanted to bring up something I noticed during Sirius' 
discussion with Harry in front of the Black family tapestry : If I 
remember rightly, Sirius mentioned his brother Regulus, and that 
he'd died '15 years ago' by the hand of Voldemort, because he no 
longer wanted to support Voldemort. Hope I'm not getting my dates 
mixed up here, but wouldn't that have been around the time of 
Harry's birth? Which seems significant to me - I don't think that 
JKR would have mentioned '15 years' specifically if it wasn't to 
become significant later on in the story. Was Regulus asked by 
Voldemort to do something to do with the newly born Harry and/or 
Neville,which he refused to do? I'd love to know what you think
