Kris here:

I change my mind daily of the fate of DD... so don't
feel bad about
throwing this idea out... I think it is great!

Some of the things that made me think of DD faking:

1) He is not buried in the earth. Very Christ-like
(and like Aslan
from Chronicles of Narnia) he is laid on a stone
table... possibly to
be reborn/ressurrected?

2) DD directing Harry before school year begins to
always keep his
invisiblilty cloak with him. I can't help but believe
that it is knowing that the time will come that Harry must be an
*invisible witness* able to report back the "murder".

3) DD stuns Harry on the top of the tower ensuring
that he is a witness, as well that he doesn't misinterpret what is
being acted out in front of him and interfere.. and mistakenly attack
Draco or Snape (whom DD is being very careful to protect).
