boyd:
I agree. But it *does* appear that there's something more going on. 
Otherwise, why haven't we heard more about how this protection from 
Lilly works? Or that of her family? And why has JKR hidden all 
details about Harry's parents from us? And we never heard the
prophecy firsthand, nor do we know whether there was some other
reason why Harry was to be able to kill LV. Then there's the whole DD 
thing, and why Petunia knows about Dementors, and why LV wants to
kill Harry personally, and why Tom became LV and why why why why....

My bet is that she'll leave us guessing 'til the end.

Aaargh! Particulars Probably Lurking Everywhere. Something Is 
Definitely Afoot, Rowling! (A.P.P.L.E. S.I.D.A.R.)
