I agree with Alex Gray (message 73191) that Harry's power "which LV has 
not" is  love.  I think that's what's in the room that's always "locked" in the 
MOM--that's what is so dangerous to study.

I've wondered what Dumbledore could be referring to when he said there's 
something "worse than death."   But I realized that when one dies, everything, 
including pain, is over; it stops.  With love, we can continue to feel pain for the 
loss of loved ones for as long as we live.  I think pain is inevitable when one 
loves.

I think Harry will kill LV, but not in the way Harry is thinking about right now.  I 
don't think Harry will murder LV in the traditional sense.  I agree with Alex that 
LV will be overcome by love, a love so great that instead of disembodying LV 
(as Lilly's love did in SS), this greater love will end LV -- defeat & vanquish 
him--totally.  I don't know whether it will be Harry's love for Dumbledore, his 
love for a female partner, or his love for the world that will defeat LV, but I think 
that is how this evil will end.
