>>>Are we getting a pattern here, or is it just me? Voldy's over-
confident streak has bitten him in the a** every time he has 
encountered Harry. Dumbledore's "gleam" may just be a recognition 
that, this time, Voldy's really undone himself. And then the 
immediate reversion back to tired and old is because he knows that 
Harry is still going to have to deal with some major bad stuff.

  - Yet if we assume this is true, what about the statement 
of 'fatherly love' Dumbledore makes at the end of OoP? If he knows 
this is he not sort of using Harry as a pawn in this game to force LV 
to be LV's own undoing by not telling everything as soon as he sees 
this pattern forming? Just a thought that perhaps Dumbledore did see 
it but thought of using Harry to get to LV, or perhaps I am just 
wondering more about that gleam.
