I think that R.A.B. is Regulus, but what's happened to him?  Sirius
said he was killed shortly after he tried to leave the DEs, supported
by Lupin's announcement at Harry's b-day party in HBP (Regulus
managed to evade being killed for just a few days).  But Dumbledore's
talk with Draco on the Tower has led many to believe that perhaps
Regulus is still alive and disguised as Filch. Aberforth Another character we might have seen

Kellie:
I am quite new to this list and this is my first post, but I want to say 
that I am enjoying what I have read so far.  All that has been mentioned is 
quite thought provoking and I am loving the discussion.   Ok, on to what I 
was going to say.  smiles

My first thought was that Regulus black were what the initials stood fore. 
I also have speculated that Regulus taking the horcrux may be what lead to 
his death.  Perhaps, when he decided he wanted to get away from the dark 
side, he wanted to do something to try and bring LV down.  So, he decided to 
get hold of one of the horcruxes, and in it's place left the note, that was 
in the fake locket.  A message maybe? to anyone who was fighting against LV 
to let them know it wasn't the real thing? .  Or, as a last message for LV
if he were to read it.   If I recall correctly, the writer of the message 
said that he would probably be dead.  Perhaps that is why Regulus was 
killed. LV discovered that he had turned, and had hidden away the horcrux 
and he wouldn't reveal the location and died because of it.  Regulus, 
expecting to die, left that note in the fake locket.

I must admit I didn't consider the possibility of him still being alive.  I 
will have to go back and reread the part when Dumbledore is speaking with 
Draco.  I need to reread that book again anyway.  When I first read it, I 
was focused more on emotions and when DD was killed I was upset and probably 
missed some pertinent information, since DD was my favorite character.

I also agree with this point.  It has to be something important to the 
story, though I am not sure how yet. I am very eager to find out. The 
message in the locket is something my friends and I have discussed and 
puzzled over, since reading the book.


I hope my comments made sense and that it wasn't to far fetched. smiles
