> DD has a way of only telling a part of the truth. From his
standpoint both boys fit the description. I'm not sure if DD
really thinks Neville would fit the prophecy or if he just
means both boys fit the description.

But what if LV had chosen Neville? Alice would have died.
Neville would have died. LV would have been just fine. His
soul would be a tad more ripped--and after a while (moments
or weeks or years) he would begin to wonder if he had chosen
wrong. He would have gone after the Potter boy too. <snip> <


June:
That doesn't add up because the prophecy stated that it would
be one of two boys and Voldemort would mark the one it would be
himself. Dumbledore did not say that, he only told Harry who the
other boy was (Neville). It is the last or second last chapter
in Goblet of Fire.
