Okay, I was reading along, nodding at the logic of this theory (I don't 
believe it at all, but it is entertaining), until I came to this. I do not 
think Dumbledore could be the heir of Hufflepuff; to my mind, he's 
Gryffindor through and through. Besides, he's got not only the Sorting Hat 
(which could be because he's headmaster), but the Gryffindor sword. 
(Question: are there artifacts for the other three houses?) Also, if 
Dumbledore *were* the heir, his fathering a child wouldn't make the child 
the heir until Dumbledore died.
