SNIP

I do not agree!  I agree more with the initial "mushy" theory.  Harry
was not *in control* of his emotions when the strong emotion about
Sirius that was in his heart drove Voldemort out of his head.  I don't
think *control* is the most important thing; I think love, compassion,
tolerance, and forgiveness are and will continue to be much more
important.
