Pippin:
"..telling them that humans were hardly ever good at this," ch27 
OOP.

I agree that there is a good chance the prophecy doesn't mean 
what Dumbledore thinks it means. The part I don't understand is 
why you think this makes a difference--the problem isn't that 
Dumbledore believes the prophecy is about Harry, it's that Voldie 
does.
