--------------Maybe it doesn't count if it doesn't work. He didn't so 
much as give her a headache, he just said the words. And, yeah, there 
was intent, but not enough of it, or the spell would have actually 
worked. 

> 3. With the Dementors gone from Azkaban, what will they keep all 
prisoners there anymore??

-------------It is still a prison out in the middle of the ocean. 
Just because Dumbledore wouldn't have had any trouble escaping 
(wasting valuable time), doesn't mean everyone else could that 
easily. Not having Dementors just makes it easier.


> 4.  Why would Harry have been asked to do a Patronus Charm as an 
extra credit during his Owls?  I understand that it was meant as 
extra credit, but would they ask the other students to do something 
similar?  I think Harry will be tapped to have something to do with 
Dementors later on....

-------------I think that was just natural curiosity on the part of 
the examiner. He'd heard that Harry could produce a corporeal 
patronus--highly unusual for someone his age--and didn't want to miss 
the opportunity of seeing it for himself. It sounded to me like it 
was a special treat for the examiner.
