Now Me (karenlyall666)
Although I agree with this part of Pippin's theory, my own take on 
the subject is that Harry was either 'emotionally dead' during this 
meeting, or had so many comflicting emotions, anger, loss, love 
etc... That Dumbledore realised there was no way LV could break 
through...

Thanks for listening
