Why does Kreacher refer to Voldy as the dark lord? Only DE's (e.g. 
Lucius) and Snape seem to. Who was it that encouraged or taught 
kreacher to use this, rather than either Voldemort or he-who must-
not-be-named? 

At the least it seems to gainsay what Sirius suggests that his 
family may have sympathised with LV, but never were DE's (that and 
the fact also that both his brother Regulus  and cousin Bellatrix 
joined up)

Methinks the Godfather doth (again) protest too much.
