OK folks, this is one of those cross polinating posts, because 
soemwhere else there are conversations about who is the spy round 
here.  How about Lily as a double agent? (I hesitate to do a ESE!Lily 
for fear of AV curses on my doorstep tomorrow morning!)  LV would 
then not think that she needed to be killed. And there is that 
curious thing that Hagrid says in PS (p45) "suppose the myst'ry is 
why You-Know-Who never tried to get 'em on his side before ... 
probably knew they were too close ter Dumbledore ter want anythin ter 
do with the Dark Side. Maybe he thought he could persuade em ..."  
Now this indicates that Hagrid is not aware of the prophecy, but it 
also makes it sound as though Hagrid thought that Lily and James were 
obvious targets for LV to recruit - why is that I ask myself?  I 
could understand it if Wormtail were speaking, as in LV had gained 
his allegiance and was trying to pull the other marauders in.

Getting a bit too far down the wine glass to take this further 
tonight.  It just occured to me when reading the thread, so I haven't 
thought it out any further.  Maybe this one has already been thrashed 
out.  I've recently taken to exploring the  magical posts and where 
to find them - highly recommended reading, they say history repeats. 
Is there anything that hasn't been said before?
