I love Harry Potter! I just started re-reading the first book last night. I can't wait for the next book to come out!

Oh, me too! I've read every book at least three times; more for the early books!
So who do you think R.A.B. is?

I'm not sure... Reincarnated Albus Dumbledore? lol

Everyone thinks R.A.B is for Regulus Black, Sirius' brother...however just because that is what everyone thinks I am sure Rowling will make it be someone else.
My personal theory is that the 'A' in RAB stands for 'and' so R.A.B. is actually 2 people. Which two people? I have no idea, R and B are a bit too vague.

See, I came up with the Regulous Black theory all on my own; I was surprised at how many others shared it. It makes sense though. Only Death Eaters call Voldemort the "Dark Lord" and that's who the letter was addressed to. Regulous Black was a former Death Eater and the initials fit, so I thought it might be him. It does seem to be the prevailing theory.

I know I sent a message, but I'm posting, too.
Re-read the chapter in OoP where they are cleaning out Grimmauld Place. I'm just sayin', is all...
RAB probably will be Regulus (Alphard) Black. I think that was the name of the uncle who gave Sirius the money for his flat, anyhow.
BTW, anyone got any theories on what happened to Sirius' motorbike? How much would we love to see Harry on a flying bike, with a big f**k-off sword? (I really must finish and post this fic sometime...)

There are several places where they're cleaning, SpaceAnJL, and it's a big book. Could you just tell us? Please?

I definetly think that RAB is Regulas (sp?) Makes a lot of sense. That and remember that big locket that they couldn't seem to get open in OOTF??? Kretcher went and hid it somewhere. I bet if you ask him, he'd know where it's at.
Bigger questions I think would be
A: Is Snape a baddie?
B: Who's getting offed??
A: Personally....my gut feeling is Snape is bad. Now that's just my gut talking...but everyone has been wrong about Snape before. Plus, he was giving Harry Lessons before her ran off to Lord Voldermort. Telling Harry to close his mind and to think the spell, not say it. We also have the fact that Dumbledore was begging Snape...but did not say what he was begging...whether it was to kill or not to kill, we can't say. All we do know is that Dumbledore did not fear death, so we would assume that he wasn't begging for his life. Just raises more questions...
B: First off...Hagrid...love the guy, but he's really close to Harry...and we know what happened to Dumbledore. I figured that Lord Voldermort would try to take out as many people as he could that are close to Harry...
That being true...a Weasley must die. I'm sorry...but there are to many of them, they're all close to Harry, and they've all managed to escape practically un-harmed. (I say practically because of Bill and the whole Werewolf thing.) Now...I don't think it'll be Ron, but I do have this distinct feeling it'll be Ginny. It would make sense. Lord Voldermort kills Ginny, Harry goes nuts, kills Voldermort. That being said...my belief is that Harry also dies. The prophecy pretty much states that neither can live while the other survives. (something like that.) So my theory...Ginny Harry and Hagrid all get it in the end.

It's very early on, when they are just starting toclean the house, before the doxyfest. There's a cabinet with a load of junk in it, including a music box straight out of 'Hellraiser', a shiny centipede thing, and a locket nobody can open. Just mentioned in passing, like it's no big deal.
ed: we're gonna see dead Weasleys, but I think Ron might buy it. Ever read the article that posits the chess game in bk 1 as a metaphor for the final battle? Bellatrix is definitely the Black Queen.
