Two questions from a lurker

I finished the book a couple of days ago, and I'm greatly enjoying 
reading everyone's thoughts and theories.  I need to read the book a 
second time before I can post anything intelligent; I'm terrible about 
absorbing details.  But I do have two quick questions, and a couple of 
comments.

Someone already mentioned this, and I don't think I saw a response to 
it.  Many people are theorizing that Harry or his scar might be a 
Horcrux.  I have a hard time with that one, since Voldemort couldn't 
even bear to touch Harry in SS.  That being the case, how could his soul 
reside in Harry? 

In reading all these posts, I keep seeing things like ESESnape and 
ESELupin.  What the heck does ESE stand for?  I can kinda get the 
meaning from the context of the discussions, but I'm still not clear on 
it. 

Just a couple of general comments -

I got a serious Spider-Man vibe when Harry told Ginny that they couldn't 
be together.  I'm not saying I minded it at all; I would expect nothing 
less gallant from Harry :)  That being said, I hope Ginny pulls a 
Mary-Jane and tells Harry that she wants to be with him, and he can 
stuff his gallantry.

I *love* that Lupin and Tonks got together.  Lupin's a favorite of mine, 
and I'm glad something's going right for him for a change.

Back to lurker-land...
