Jahanua,
That is an excellent point! If Harry being the father of Tom Riddle 
could prevent him being able to kill Harry without killing himself 
then by the same token ditto his hypothetical Mother. Top canon!
Now, how to answer that? ummmmmmm........................

Well I guess you can take your pick of these:

1 The theory still has credibility in terms of Harry but Ginny is out 
out out she is causing too many hiccups.

2 Perhaps, the attack on Ginny was a paradox of the continuum. The 
paradox that actually brings about the conception of Tom Riddle. Are 
we all a little guilty of diminishing the importance of Ginny's 
experience in the COS. If, without the pain, that Tom Riddle causes 
Ginny by his attack, there would be no relationship between his 
parents. It stands to reason that his attacking her would actually 
back up his existence. Time is a fine feathery wisp..........

dum-de-dum ....I wonder what Hermione would say. If I asked her how 
old is the Grey Lady's Ghost? ................
now where did I put my copy of Hogwart's a History.....Darn 
it....Where is that book...............dum-de-dum <as close as your 
gonna get to Monita FILKing>.....................
