Charme:

Just some random comments which might spark someone else thinking....

Tom Riddle's soul residing in Harry is not totally bandwagon worthy to me,
either.  I do think some of his powers were in fact transferred to Harry,
but not his soul. JKR always refers to Tom Riddle/Lord Voldemort as one and
the same, but I never see TR/LV/The Dark Lord mentioned all at once by her
either, (which I think rather kind of weird.)

"...and either must DIE at the HAND of the OTHER, for neither can live while
the OTHER survives"  (The only hand I've heard referred to is Wormtail's,
and I firmly believe the rat is not what he seems. BUT LV has a new hand
from Wormtail, doesn't he? How confusing...)

"Other" is really an * interesting* word.  See all the definitions below:

Being the remaining one of two or more: the other ear.
Being the remaining ones of several: His other books are still in storage.
Different from that or those implied or specified: Any other person would
tell the truth.
Of a different character or quality: "a strange, other dimension... where
his powers seemed to fail" (Lance Morrow).
Of a different time or era either future or past: other centuries; other
generations.
Additional; extra: I have no other shoes.
Opposite or contrary; reverse: the other side.
Alternate; second: every other day.
Of the recent past: just the other day.

With those examples can you see where the "other" can mean any number of
people or even perhaps ancestors? :)

This is sooooooo a riddle.  (pardon the pun)
