Hrmm... well, this is interesting then.  It makes one wonder if 
Dumbeldore was aware that faux Moody in Goblet of Fire (Crouch Jr.) 
was using the Cruciatus curse on the students.  If Dumbeldore knew, 
then wouldn't this have been a hint that it wasn't really Moody?  I 
mean, if you have to truly wish to inflict pain on someone, if you 
have to truly enjoy it, then wouldn't that set off an alarm about 
faux Moody?  Things that make you go hmmm....
