Ginger interjects:
It bugs me too, but I have faith that she will reveal all in her good 
time. :)  Perhaps someone should slip Harry a curiosity potion.
I don't have answers to all your questions, but I do have them for 
two of them:

Ginger again: According to JKR's most recent chat, Harry's 
grandparents are dead and are not important to the story (although, 
she added, we will be learning a bit more about them)
 
> Why isn't Harry curious about his grand parents? 
 
Ginger:  Perhaps he read the chat transcript :)

Ginger:  Nope, he lives a quiet life in Devon with his wife Pernelle. 
(SS paperback, US edition, p. 220)  Hagrid did say that Hogwarts was 
safer than Gringotts. (p. 63)

I love questions.  I love answers.  I can't wait until they meet.

Ginger, thanking vmonte for these interesting trains of thought to 
ponder as I go to sleep.  Nighty-night!
