SSSusan:
Any thoughts on HOW they might accomplish this?  There's quite a 
list, actually, of people for whom Harry would be willing to 
sacrifice himself, I suspect.  Ron & Hermione, of course.  Hagrid & 
DD.  Any and all Weasleys [including Percy?].  Probably Lupin as the 
last remaining Marauder and the one who taught him the Patronus.  
Neville, as well.  

I wonder what means The Order/Hogwarts staff/parents have of 
protecting this many people?
