I totaly agree with you. I've been also thinking about three being
involved in the prophecy! (HArry Neville and LV of course.) I truly
don't think that LV is as absentminded or stupid as we think of him...
in the first book he "forgot" that love from Harry's mother would save
him, in the Second book he "forgot" that a pheniox tear heals all...
it just seems to easy that Voldemort didn't think of Harry and both
Neville.. 

Maybe Voldemort attacked Neville the same day as Harry but
first, then placed a strong memory charm on Neville (this would be why
NEville seems to have a really hard time remembering things). Then after
marking Neville, LV went to mark Harry as well. After marking Harry the
prophecy was sealed but it was strong magic so that was what lead to
LV's down fall  ... what if Harry is sent to try and destroy LV, but
fails and ends up dying, and Neville will be forced to come and murder
LV instead? 

After all Neville is kind of the undermineded kid, his
parents were tortured and it seems that he dosen't nearly get as much
fame as he should, where as Harry just wishes to blend in and be
normal. Maybe it'd be better if Harry dies he would have what he most
desperatly desires, a family and to be normal again.
