Oh, Susan. I missed your post, when I wrote my previous one. Sorry!
Yes, that would be and ending I will be much happier than Harry 
dying.  


Yes, I am too convinced (especially after last JKR chat) that Sirius 
will show up in one form or another. I don't know if JRK will make me 
completely happy by resurrecting Sirius in full flesh and blood, but 
it sure sounds good. :o)

I agree with you. I don't think that if Sirius was properly dead, JKR 
would allow him to come back, since she stated many times that in her 
world, "magic cannot bring dead people back"

For reasons discussed here ad naseum I still believe that he may not 
be properly dead. It is likely that JKR will crash my belief in the 
next book, but till there... 


Since I don't want to believe that Dumbledore is so evil that he 
planned Sirius death, I may choose to believe that Headmaster instead 
helped fake his death . Who knows, maybe dear headmaster realised 
that Sirius really needs to feel useful for the Order and he can give 
him something to do, while others believe that Sirius is dead.

I do think that time travel will come back to hunt us again(although 
I would prefer that it would not) , but I doubt it will have anything 
to do with Sirius.

I am more inclined to share the theory that Dumbleldore knows in 
advance what is about to happen from something time-travel related.
