Celestina:  Just wanted to add a little something  to this that my 
daughter actually pointed out to me a couple of days ago.  Argus 
Filch/Arabella Fig. Both are squibs, both have cats, and have the 
same initials. 

Umm, not sure if this has any bearing on anything, but just wanted to 
add to this discussion regarding Filch. 

I am one who thinks perhaps Filch would be the one who learns magic 
later in life, after all, he is trying to isn't he? But not sure 
about him as the HBP, I would need to see more to support that 
theory. I'm still leaning in the Dumbledore direction for HBP.
