You know, I've consider the same thing that Petunia is
in fact a witch who chooses to live as a muggle. What
really got me to thinking this was two things first
that JKR has stated (sorry don't remember where) that
someone who was thought to have no magic ablities
would be reveled. And secondly thjat scene in OotP
where Petunia knows about the demetor and Azkaban.
It's not so much that she knows this but that she
heard "that boy" talking to her sister about it. If
she really thought her sister was such a huge freak,
would she have been hanging around Lily and James??
It has also been pointed out in several post that
Petunia must have met Dumbledore, or at least recieved
more than the two letters we know he sent to the
Dursleys. What if she attended Hogwarts, met Vernon at
some point, fell in love and renouced the magical
world to be with him??
I think Petunia knows a lot more about the magical
world than she lets on.
