Erin:
It's a good thing you're not a politician, Pippin!  The world would 
be in some serious trouble if you were arguing the meaning of the 
word "sex", what exactly was meant by a "lie", and who "Wormtail" 
really was.  

Nope, I just don't buy it.  By this reasoning, we could declare that 
Draco sometimes calls himself "Ron", and that Harry therefore spends 
half his time buddying up to his enemy from Slytherin.  Any passage 
without an explicit description of Ron, it must really be Draco!!   
And there's no canon to disprove it!  

Lupin could perfectly well be ESE without committing every single one 
of the murders.  Could be, mind.   He's not, but that's another post.
