<<<I'm still puzzled why "Moody" (Barty Crouch) obeyed Dumbledore and
taught his classes the illegal curses--even though he must know they'd
help Harry duel Voldemort!>>>

I noticed a lot of inconsistencies with Moody/crouch... like this
one... and the fact that he tells Harry and Hermione that they would be
great aurors... wouldn't he want to discourage that sort of aspiration,
being a dark wizard himself? Perhaps he was trying to lead them into
it, in order to make them targets in the future? Still seems thin. I'm
reminded of when I am a storyteller for an RPG and have to pull an
ending out of my hat at short notice because the game has to end for
one reason or another... in a pinch, anyone will do as a villian, (damn
the previous plotline, and full speed ahead!). Could it be that JKR was
looking at someone else to be an accomplice but it didn't work out and at
the last minute was forced to come up with a different ending? The whole
real-Moody-being-locked-in-his-trunk-for-ten-months thing is reaching
a bit, for me... someone else mentioned wondering why Dumbledore hadn't
caught on a bit sooner, and I agree with that. What do you guys think?
