kylie responds:

I hope you're right, geoff...still it seems JKR is preparing us with 
comments through the series like "there are things worse than death" 
and "to the well-organized mind death is the next great adventure".  
Perhaps she is just preparing us for Sirius' death or the death of 
other major characters not including Harry, but still I worry she may 
kill our boy off to rid herself of speculation of further books after 
7.
