Whilst we're on this topic, I've got a question that I wanted to ask 
about Apparating. I had originally assumed that apparating was the 
magical equivalent of teleporting (as used in Marvel's X-Men comics), 
that is to say that you needed to know where you were going and be 
able to picture that place in your mind. However, someone in GoF 
(sorry, I don't have my books with me so can't remember who) says 
that when LV touched the Dark Mark of a DE they were all to 
disapparate and apparate immediately at his side. If this is the case 
then how would they know where to go? Does Apparating allow you to 
focus on a person and as well as place for your destination? And if 
this is so why can't MoM wizards focus on LV, apparate to his side 
and capture him? 

Thanks
