  Lina: 
  Thanks Melanie. I don't have the books with me (I'm at work) so I 
got a little screwed up on where in canon the info on this was. 
Anyway, I think you actually strenghthened my point. The canon 
actually details why LV specifically wants Harry's blood, and at no 
time is there any referance to specifically needing HIS blood in 
order for the potion to work or in fact, make LV stronger than using 
any other enimies blood(aside from his mother's protection).
