Ken says:  Not a reply to any one particular post but what exactly 
happened to Voldemort when he tried to kill baby Harry? Surely an 
ACDB would kill and if it bounced off Harry and hit Voldemort he was 
killed - so one of his horcruxes is gone there and then.  The 
Voldemort that was less than human and ended up in Albania (maybe 
that horcrux was there all the time - otherwise how did he get there 
without a body or a wand?) must have been one he had created before 
he went off to kill Harry.

So are there four of the potential seven that we think/know have 
been destroyed, the ring, the locket (allegedly), the diary and the 
rebounded ACDB?  With the piece he rebodied at the graveyard and 
possibly Nagini that leaves on one unaccounted for?

And if he wants Harry's death to create that maybe he hasn't got 
round to making it yet at all - after all he must still have hopes 
of nobbling Potter now that Dumbledore has "gone"  Isn't that why he 
wants everyone else to lay of Harry?  So maybe all (all?) Harry has 
to do in the last book is kill Voldemort and Nagini.  No matter how 
big a tome vol 7 is going to be its hard to imagine him running 
around finding and destroying 3,4 or more horcruxes in a year.  Two 
sounds much more reasonable.
