I've read a number of posts (and agree with them) that Harry doesnt 
ask questions. He doesn't ask them when we wish he would, he doesn't 
ask enough when he does ask, etc. Well, it just hit me that in PS/SS 
it's stated: "Don't ask questions - that was the first rule for a 
quiet life with the Dursleys." (p.20 US edition)
If he's been trained since he was a one-year old to not ask 
questions, that would be a hard habit to break. No wonder he's not 
asking questions when we think he should!! He was never allowed to 
explore the natural curiosity that all people have!
