Carol:
I for one expect to see little Mark in the Sorting Hat scene in Book 6
and believe him to be a distant relation of Harry's (whom Dumbledore
doesn't know about about because his parents are Muggles).

"smartone" responded: 
I would just like to ask, why wouldnt Dumbledore know?  He seems to
know pretty much everything else.  However, I must admit, you might be
on to something here.

Carol says:
Hi. I just wrote you a very long post explaining how IMO Dumbledore is
not omniscient and how he could be unaware of a ten-year-old
Muggleborn in Harry's neighborhood, but when I checked my e-mail I
found a message urging me to go to JKR's site and read the response to
the FAQ Poll.

What a crushing discovery! Mark Evans is nobody! My favorite non-Snape
theory reduced to ashes! And I was so looking forward to "seeing"
Harry and Mark staring open-mouthed at each other at the Sorting
ceremony. I guess I'll hunt up Madam Pomfrey and see if she'll place a
cheering charm on me.

Carol, who will try to go back to lurking now and make the List Elves
happy. (Maybe they'll pose for a photo in their tea towels and post it
to the list. *That* would cheer me up.)
