Are there any threads concerning the fact(?) that Harry was supposed to die in Dead Beat and would have if Marcone (Ms. Gard) hadn't saved him?

Nothing specific or recent that I know of, though the topic does come up from time to time in various discussions, usually of fate, branching universes, implications of Death, or speculation of the extents of Gard's power/insight

there was a really awesome thread about Harry and his moral delima's some time last winter? Really compelling stuff about how/why the coin he picked up was kept hidden despite his apparent good intentions. the reality of keeping things swept under the metaphorical rug for appearance sake vs actually confronting his own corruption. a Really meaty OP. I would have sworn it was already nominated to be moved to the reference but, I found nothing there and wanted to nominate it myself. but now I can't find ;( help?

Everyone’s chatting about Cowl and Kemmler all the time, but this is far from the only mysteries about the Dresden Files.  I’ve only been here for about two months, so I’m curious – have any of these topics been discussed at all in length?  I’ve searched and not found anything.  I’m not really looking to start new topics (well, except for the unlikely event that no one’s discussed it and it’s a really good topic) but am really just curious to know what the general consensus is on these things, and if there’s any really juicy fan theories. 

There was originally one other item on this list, but I found the discussion on Thorned Namshiel’s coin.  Interesting discussion – I had certainly considered everyone in the helicopter, but had not considered a member of the Fomor as a possible recipients, nor that Mab might have snagged it and have it on ice somewhere.

-   What really happened to Milwaukee in 1994.
-   Presuming it’s not “nothing”, what lies beyond the Outer Gates.
-   Mother Winter and Summer’s most powerful name.
-   What the curses “Hells Bells” and “Stars and Stones” actually mean.  I actually find the implication of which curses are used by which people to be really interesting.
-   What allowed Malcom Dresden to contact Harry during Dead Beat, and why he hasn’t spoken since.
-   Any metaphysical significance to Harry’s Halloween birthday or Thomas’ Valentines Day birthday

At one point or another I've seen them all discussed or joined in myself. you wanna hear about one of them, make a thread for it. I doubt any random discussions on them were saved. I can think of at least one example for each of hthose off the top of my head though.
*Milwaukee vs PT, Mab closes the circle on an entire city for instance.(hope te see that one in PT repeated)

I'm almost done reading Skin Game and I have a question about Laschiel's coin.  When did it get freed and available for Hanah Asher to own it?  Last I knew, Harry buried it under a foot of concrete in the basement of his house.   Who dug it up?

I believe it happens after the Raith deeps fight and Lash (the Shadow) goes away. Proven Guilty, I think? Don't quote me. lol

I thought HARRY dug it up at the end of one of the books and gave it to Forthill. It seems to be someone's will that those things are in circulation ... and it could be both sides' will. I am sure Forthill did not release it, but I am also sure the Denarians have Vatican contacts.
