It's so cute that you think that.

I know it won't convince the most stubborn supporters of the theory, but it will shut down the less zealous ones.

Well, even a corpse wouldn't be conclusive evidence that Justin is still dead. He could've died, but remained on Earth the way Corpsetaker did, and how Kemmler may have done. Dead but not gone. Then Justin's soul could have found a way to resurrect itself by taking control of a new body, or-- well, who knows what? Corpsetaker's method of resurrecting herself may not be the only method available to a soul still on Earth.
For one thing, the Sidhe seem to be able to see and interact with souls just as they would with embodied mortals. They can even make deals with those mortals, as demonstrated by Harry and Lea at Harry's grave in Ghost Story. So why couldn't Justin make a bargain with a fae for the fae to find him a living body that he would be able to take control of or possess? Or for the fae to arrange for such a body to turn up somehow, free of the soul of the original owner? Other details could be hammered out as well, like the gender, magical potential and so on.
Justin would have to offer something fairly important for this deal, most likely, which could take it out of his price range, but it is possible in theory.
All of that said, I don't think Justin's alive, myself. I think he's probably dead, since Jim has told us so repeatedly. I'm just playing devil's advocate.

Does Elaine have any children? (not with Harry).

The idea isn't to come up with a billion questions you'd like to know the answer to, but two or three really good ones that can give you a deep insight into Harry, the Dresdenverse, or a few of the important characters without getting an "I'm not gonna tell you." Think of it this way, Jim has time to answer five of your questions, come up with five good ones with out getting the dreaded "I'm not gonna tell you."

Well My six good ones to add on the front page would be this:
1 If a White Court vamp became a Knight for one of the Fae Courts, would the power boost affect their vampire powers?
2 Does Mab have her own enforcer counterparts to the gruffs and is Lea oposite to Eldest Gruff ?
3 If Luccio had been able to make Harry a Warden Sword what type of sword would it have been?
4 Does being Winter/Summer Knight mean you still have to follow the first law of magic and does the ritual allow you to understand how to use Unseelie/Seelie magic?.
5 Was Kincaid lying when he said he'd never seen a wizard cut loose like Harry did in Blood Rites ?
6 Is there a story behind Madrigal Raith's ward cloths and a reason for why he decided on a spear?.
The rest of the questions I posted were for fun and on the random off chance that Jim shows up on the board to answer them .
