Beth now:  I don't think I agree that LV performed that ritual with 
the idea that Harry's blood would afford him any protection.  I think 
he was performing a spell...bone of the father, flesh of the servant, 
blood of the enemy....to bring him back to full power.  I think the 
glint in DD's eyes tells us that, unknowingly, LV just did something 
that could prove to be his downfall in the future.

I really like that...I couldn't quite put my finger on what DD's glint 
might mean, and I also noticed how odd it was that LV told Lily to 
stand aside...what you just speculated fits in really well with both 
of those mysteries, along with why LV might not have died in the 
first place...very interesting!
