I agree Valky, Harry will need plenty of help to solve the 
Horcrux "riddles".  It's been mentioned before, and after rereading 
the cave scene, I've come to the conclusion that R.A.B. probably did 
not drink the potion himself since the note left was well written 
and rational, not at all like the writing one would expect from 
someone who just experienced what DD went through. I've seen it 
posted elsewhere that if it is Regulus, he probably made Kreacher do 
the drinking. So even though Harry can't stand Kreacher, he will be 
of help if Harry orders him to give him information.  I've also been 
considering that R.A.B. was framed, which could explain why he was 
killed, but I'm still thinking he died was in his attempt to destroy 
the locket--and I think Kreacher would have been witness. 

JKR has made it look like good ole sticky fingers Mung took the 
locket and sold it, but my money is on the twins.  They were 
pilfering items from the Black mansion to learn their spells. Since 
they couldn't open the locket, it would rouse their curiousity to 
somehow learn its spell to turn it into some kind of gag item for 
their shop. If so, the two have a ticking time bomb on their hands 
which might kill them, OTH, they have shown themselves to be quite 
good at being patient in figuring things out. However, if you 
believe in what goes around comes around, Gred and Forge are due for 
a little of their own medicine.
