My own pet theory about the Death Eaters is that the word is a pun on
'necromancer'. Others have compared them to vultures (search the yahoo
site for Death Eaters and you'll find the discussion)

This makes a lot of sense, Alshain.  Will have to look on the site. The Death Eaters do behave very much like vultures,  circling around waiting to attack.  I'm reminded of the incident ( Book 1, if I'm not mistaken) where Harry witnesses the hooded figure drinking the unicorn's blood.

Personally I believe that the task to somehow neutralise the Dementors
is going to Remus Lupin and that it's going to be fairly important
fairly soon. Perhaps one of the main themes of the sixth book.

Why do you think this?  What hints do you find in canon?  Would really be interested to know.
