Amiable Dorsai:
Thanks for the quote, I thought I remembered something like that.
It is tantalizing, isn't it? Neglecting your second possibility,
whether Harry's a Horcrux or not his connection to LV means that he
has a connection (of some sort) to chunks of Voldie's soul.  That may
provide a solution to the problem of how in the world Harry is going
to find all the rest of the pieces.
