Uncle Tom?

firefly:
What if Harry and Tom are related? I'm thinking that perhaps Harry's 
muggle mother's family and Tom's muggle father's side of the family 
could be connected. Does anyone recall if the books mention the color 
of Tom's father's eyes? A large point is made of the fact that Harry 
has his mothers brilliant green eyes and even JKR has said that is 
important. I'm thinking that if they were related by blood that could 
also explain why Tom's curse on Harry back fired so badly. What do you 
think? 

Adesa:
I've been thinking the same thing, for years! Ever since that scene in 
CoS, I've thought it odd that JKR would have Riddle mention their 
physical similarities.

Going back to CoS and HBP now, in search of Riddle Sr.'s eye color...
