David:

I agree, as I've posted previously. If book 6 is to include a 
subject omitted from #2, my vote is Gryffindor. We've heard all 
about Slytherin, but very little about GG.

I also view Dumbledore's comment that onlt a true Gryffindor could 
have pulled out the sword as very key! On a first read, you could 
have taken that to mean a member of the Gryffindor house. Thinking 
about it further, you see the beauty of the statement and situation. 
Harry is a descendent of GG.

JK can wrap the books up as a centuries old battle between GG and SS,
finally finished by their descendents, Harry and LV.

We know SS wanted only pure bloods in school. We know GG wanted all 
with magical ability. We don't know how their first fight ended, but 
we know SS created the Chamber and left. Thus, since there is no 
royalty apparently in modern WW, my vote's on GG as the HBP.
