another puzzle
Perhaps one of you pieced this together immediately. I haven't.

alt_mcgonagall's 17 September Order Only post, Molly Weasley asks McGonagall if Lucius Malfoy asked to see "the book" during his visit to the castle. McGonagall responds: "As for the book - no, he did not. I believe we've duped him - at least this year."
Thoughts?
Aside: the question has been raised (on the previous thread) whether to start threads for each separate topic or whether this community risks developing too many simultaneous conversations. My vote is for making new posts for each separate topic (and for fresh rounds of speculation on old topics after they've lain dormant for a while). I find this helps me navigate the community if I want to find what someone said on a particular issue. For what it's worth (and in anticipation of the day when it becomes an issue for us), I also think it's helpful to keep threads from collapsing to outline by starting a new post to continue the ongoing conversation.

Oh man, if I were in the Order, this would be the NUMBER ONE thing I'd want to make happen. For a squib, would it be better to be raised as a normal Muggle child than go to a squib camp? At least they would get to stay with the same set of parents for their entire childhoods. For a Muggleborn, obviously it would be a million times better to be raised as a pureblood wizard. Plus, this would eventually create a lot more citizens that were sympathetic to the Order and were in high-level positions. That is, of course, unless by the time they were old enough to be trusted with the secret of their parentage, they were so indoctrinated that it just made them disgusted and angry.
