Jim, I think that's a great theory, but I do hope you're wrong.  I'd hate to
see Harry lose his wizarding abilities.  That would be too cruel.  :(

Pippin, I don't think *all* of Harry's abilities could have come from
Voldemort.  He is an excellent flier, just like his father.  And his
patronus is a stag, the animal his father transformed into.  I'm not saying
he didn't get any abilities from Lily, but we've seen at least two that in
all likelihood came from James.  I imagine if *all* of his talents came from
Voldemort, his patronus would be very, very different.  I think, therefore,
that Harry was born a wizard, not a squib, although he did get additional
abilities from Tom.
