Alla:

I am not opposed to Harryhorcrux theories, since I also think that 
it is fairly obvious due to the nature of the series that Harry WILL 
be called upon to sacrifice himself and that reason seems tome to be 
the simplest as to why sacrifice may be needed, BUT since I am still 
ready and willing to be an optimist as to the Harry's survival, I am 
fully supporting SSSusan scenario - whether Harry is a horcrux or 
not, he would either:

discover at the last minute that the sacrifice is not needed ( for 
example in essense being divided would mean that Harry and Voldie 
could live separately or something like that, or Harry will learn 
that he is not a Horcrux after all, and only transfer of powers 
occurres) OR

Harry would try to make a sacrifice but somebody will "unhorcrux" 
him at the last minute. I think that the fact thet ring was no 
longer a horcrux gives us something, IF Harry is a Horcrux.

Hmmm, maybe unhorcruxing Harry would be Snape's redemptive act?

Yes, THAT. Pretty, please JKR? Something like that?

JMO,

Alla, who thinks that she probably did not say anything new in this 
post, but who enjoys Debbie's posts too much and wanted to reply. :-)
