I somehow don't think it's going to be as straight foreward as this--I
do think that Petunia will be the late bloomer we have heard about,
and, obviously, ("She is a Muggle...") she doesn't have *any* powers
*at this point*, but I really feel (and I don't see how I can be alone
here) that there must already be something in Petunia's past that
connects her to the wizarding world--aside from a sister that she
couldn't stand and took no interest in.
