Kim (me):  This is my guess too, Suzanne.  I posted about it a few weeks 
ago.  I remember long ago when I saw the original Star Wars (never saw the 
new ones) when they were fiddling with R2D2 and he kept playing holographs 
of what's his name?  Ben?  who gave him advice and information.  I think the 
pensieve is going to be left to Harry and he'll jump in whenever he's facing 
something he doesn't understand.  Dumbledore will give him advice and Harry 
will respond and Dumbledore will have a prepared answer for how he thinks 
Harry will have responded.  And in that way it will be as if they are 
conversing.  THEN of course, my hero Dumbledore will return alive and well 
and living in the suburbs through some heroism by eternally good and kind 
Lupin.

Hey, the books ARE fantasy aren't they?  So I'm adding a bit of my own.  And 
I will never accept, even if the evidence stares me in the face, that Lupin 
went bad.
