Yes... "I've heard of a curse scar acting as an alarm bell before" - 
I read this so that he /had/ heard, but does NOT grant it any 
validity. For all I know, Wizard-fairy-tales have that sort of scars 
all over! Or Mad-Eye-Moody (whom most view as paranoid and grazy) - 
so um - he's figuring Dumbledore with a bit of contempt because he 
*believes* that curse-scars work as alarm-bell. You know, a non-UFO-
believer who has been told of a UFO landing somewhere...
