Robin:

I think the exact same thing except that DD says, (US version, page 
842) "You are forgetting the next part of the prophecy, the final 
indentifying feature of the boy who could vanquish Voldemort....  
Voldemort himself would 'mark him as his equal.'  And so he did, 
Harry.  He chose you, not Neville."  And a little further on he 
says, "He saw himself in you before he had ever seen you, and in 
marking you with that scar, he did not kill you, as he inteded, but 
gave you powers..."  Is DD always right?
