Asian_lovr2:

Any thoughts on how this might work?

Voldemort's primary interest in the Prophecy is to find out Harry
strength and weaknesses, so he can plan his attack against Harry. What
could anyone say in that respect that would cause him to remain
underground? Any information, would be likely to be used in planning
an attack on Harry. So, any speculation on what information could be
given that would lead to such a complex plan that it would take
Voldemort month to impliment it. 

Not doubting you, just wondering if you had any specific ideas.
