Amy here: You know, if this were the case, this could be one of the 
reasons Uncle Vernon gets so mad about Ron calling on the fellytone, 
mailing them letters (with too many stamps), or owl letters. I am not 
sure Petunia would fill Vernon in on it, but...if he had some 
idea...like, Petunia says..." That old cook says if we never tell 
anyone where we live, LV will never be able to find us...Fine, we 
wont talk to ANYONE, about ANYTHING!" 
so...when Vernon hears that Ron calls he goes berserk and says...you 
are letting people call? OMG! NO, No, NO! And why he is so concerned 
with Hedwig flying out and about so much....It is not really so much 
that they don't want others knowing they have a wizard in the house, 
but that they don't want anyone to know WHERE they live. He just 
doesn't understand the specifics,,,that Petunia has to actually tell 
them herself...not Harry.  Plus he's just a great PRUNE anyway... :)
