Heeee, if that means that Harry is alive and well at the end or as 
well as possible after fighting final battle in whatever way Jo 
imagines, I SO have no problem with Snape living. :-)

Besides, some punishments for him are SO much more delicious if he 
is still alive to enjoy them. :-)

I am pretty sure that WW is never going to forget for example that 
Snape is the one who killed Great Albus Dumbledore ( unless one 
subscribes to the theories that Dumbledore is alive of course OR 
that Snape was planning to not kill DD, which I don't believe at 
all), so it is so much more satisfying if Snape is alive for that OR 
as I said many times, if Harry saves Snape's life, thus effectlively 
making Snape to have a life debt directly to Harry. 

In any event, I like this theory and also want to believe it.

I also don't think that if this theory is true, it is a given that 
Tonks will die. Why? She may simply not be important enough as a 
character to put on the calendar.

Kingsley Shacklebolt is not there either, or Arabella Figg or 
Mundungus or Alastor Moody. Dean Thomas and Seamus are not there 
either. I am not sure if that necessarily means that all of them 
will be dead by the end. So maybe JKR just did not pick a date for 
her.

And even though I think it is a possibility that one or more 
Weasleys will die, I can totally believe that JKR may leave all 
Weasleys alive and kicking at the end. I think she can pull it off 
and not to make it cheesy. IMO of course.

You know - to show that one pureblood family who has the values JKR 
approves of, survived bad times unharmed or something like that.


JMO of course,
