Steffy:

I finally convinced my husband to read the books, and he just 
started POA.  I was telling him about all the different theories 
about the books and whatnot, and all the discussions that happen on 
this site, and I told him about the possibility of JKR saying that 
someone might "switch houses" Before I could say anythign else, he 
said "So, someone is going to switch to Slytherin."  

I thought about it for a little while, and I think it makes the most 
sense.   Why would a Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw switch?  They are 
already decidely good.  Why switch from "the good side to the good 
side."  The only "house switch" that makes sense to me, is a 
Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw or (God forbid) Gryffindor switch to Slytherin 
or a Slytherin swith to Gryffindor, Huff or Raven.

Steffy, who's wondering if that Slytherin who could see the 
thestrals in OOTP is important, and maybe if he isn't the one who 
might give us a good switcharoo
