OotP was also SilentSufferer!Harry in some senses. He certainly could 
have raised a lot more fuss about the Blood Quill and other things. 
I'd rather call 5th year Harry, Moody!Harry. Harry shouldn't take no 
for an answer anymore, at least where he himself is concerned, and 
that means _everything_ about the Order, and I see that taking some 
doing... that's all.

I just wish HPB was published yesterday! :)
