David: Well my thinking is that the essence of goodness or fairness
of GG was that your heritage didn't matter. Your heart and courage
mattered. Thus, regardless of blood, the sorting hat could sort you
into Gryffindor.

As my mind wanders, we've heard much of Sly, but relatively little
about GG. Was he a prince? We know from canon that he was one of the
greatest 4 wizards and witches of his time. Thus, is Harry a blood
relative with these GG traits; compassion, bravery, fairness....
We know, at least DD believes, certain LV (or Sly) powers were
transferred to Harry with the failed curse. But we know Harry seems
to possess powers of his own (GG's?). Is it this combination of
powers that directly or indirectly gives Harry the ability to take
LV down?
Oh well...time will tell.
