Alchemy in HP and Stoned!Harry (was: Harry and Hagrid )

Waaaaay back in post 38511, before John Granger's article and OoP were
available, we had some fun with our limited alchemical knowledge.

In a nutshell, we determined that the reason Voldemort's AK rebounded
was that Harry is the living embodiment of the Philosopher's Stone.  

At Nimbus 2003, I asked Granger why he thought the AK rebounded, and
he said it was Lily's love.  However, I'm pretty sure he's wrong about
that: Harry kept saying he didn't know why even after Dumbledore's
Voyage To Backstory Land at the end of Book 1.  

Anyway, I recommend the Stoned!Harry thread for the sheer fun of it
(not just because I'm in it).
