Both Dumbledore and Ron are described as liking sweets......

Here are some Dumbledore quotes that, IMO, sound very different from 
before once you read them with this theory in mind:

1. "I would trust Hagrid with my life," said Dumbledore. (SS p. 10)

2. "He'll have that scar forever."

3. "Good luck, Harry," he murmured. (I could cry at this...)

4. This is what really blows my mind: the Mirror of Erised 
conversation between Dumbledore and Harry in SS p. 170: *Dumbledore* 
tells *Harry* what Ron saw in the mirror and not the other way 
round! And everything he says after that, before they part, sounds 
downright eerie now.

5. The conversation between Dumbledore and Harry towards the end of 
SS, when Dumbledore gives the "death is but the next great 
adventure" speech. He goes on to talk about how humans make wrong 
choices, and - "hummed a little and smiled at the ceiling." Is he 
fighting tears here? Furthermore, after he describes how powerful 
love leaves a mark of protection, the same thing happens. 

6. Something to watch out for: Ron getting a vomit-flavored Every 
Flavor Bean!"

Me:

Wow, I'm blown away.  I've been following this theory post by post 
and not really swallowing it until now, but I really agree that it's 
a viable and exciting possibility.  Something else to watch out for:  
Dumbledore says at some point that scars are useful - that he has one 
on his knee(?) that is a map of the London underground.  Any scars 
there Ron?  =)
