è Hi.  New to the list... this always confused me,
è because didn't Ginny open the chamber? Granted
è Riddle used her to open the chamber, but where does
è this "rule" come into place? Also, since it was already
è preciously opened by Riddle, couldn't anyone who
è knows how to talk "snake" know how to open the
è chamber?



Technically, only the Heir *could* open the chamber, and through Ginny he 
did. As we really delve into it in OoP, Ginny recalls what it felt like to be 
possessed by Voldemort/Riddle. I would think that the Heir could open the Chamber 
in any form as long as it were he.
