(I forget which puzzle you have to solve) is an alternate chapter 
for PS/SS.  In it is the part where they are discussing the stone.  
IIRC, they are discussing Harry's parents being in possession of the 
stone.

that she states on another area of her site that the first chapter 
of book six is based on a discarded chapter she almost used in books 
1 and 2. That is the only word from JKR I have to support my theory.

Yes... the page has a scene with the trio discussing how the PS 
ended up in his parents' possession (and thier bank vault)... 
I had trouble reading it myself (I have dyslexia and can't read my 
own cursive - much less anyone elses!) and had a friend 
decipher/transliterate it for me and I was *very* interested because 
it mentions that James and Lilly are implicated in the theft of the 
PS... and that seems to imply by what is recorded on this paper that 
they had something to do with the death of people...

I agree that this would have been a very diffrent story-line; but I 
also wonder if there aren't clues here that Jo is giving to us. I 
haven't seen much talked about in the books or even recently on her 
website that is just superfluous or mentioned/cited without reason.
And since she has said repeatedly that PS is important for the whole 
septology and that HBP was originally part of the story... and since 
we are going to learn more about Lilly and James in HBP (hopefully 
we'll learn what each of them did in life, as well as what their 
occupations were...) 

I think that this page isn't just a random discarded item... 
I think that it contains important clues.

I just wish I knew what they are...

>From skater314159, 
who usually lurks here because she is shy and afraid her 
observations aren't as good as you guys'... and who really had hoped 
that Snape was a vampyre/Nosferatu...
