couldn't possibly meant that P is trying to not even mention Harry's 
parents. Particularly since P does mention James quite often in the 
summer holidays periods of the books, just not directly by name, but 
rather through a euphemism like those above.

There was one more thing I was thinking of, which is Lily and James got 
together in their 7th year, we don't know when this conversation that Petunia heard 
took place. Was it before or after Lily started dating James. It is too vague 
and the fact that Petunia never answers Harry's challenge that makes me think 
that it might have been someone else.
