Snipping the rest of Carol's post because this just jumped out at
me... how can Lupin be spying on the werewolves?  Surely Peter's told
Voldemort that he's a member of the Order?  And even if we hold our
noses and guess that he DIDN'T, why would Dumbeldore send him on a
spying gig when his cover would have been pre-blown?  

Fernir Greyback is both a werewolf and a DE, and I have a hard time
picturing him refraining from ripping Lupin's throat out if he knows
that he's a spy for the Order.  Maybe Lupin is pretending to be a
double-agent like Snape but I don't really see how he could pull that off.
