Chris:
I don't think everyone 'knows' what happened as in
knowing the truth. I think, and I have always read
this, as everyone 'knows' what happened as in everyone
knows the _rumors_ of what happened. 

I tend to think of it as everyone knew Harry was the
Heir of Slytherin and offing muggle-borns. Everyone
knew, but it wasn't the truth.

Note DD never once said in the whole talk with Harry
that something was the truth or the whole truth:
1- The stone was destroyed, but whos to say that it
was not ground into the powder to make the elixer?
2- Lily died when Harry got his scar and she died to
protect him, but not that she did something (anything)
to do so. I beleive her death was coincedental to
Harry surviving and that the whole 'love' thing is a
ruse of DD.
3- DD being cautious of the beans, yet able to
recognize most flavors.

I could go on, but I don't have my books here.
