Valky:
Thankyou for the quote azriona. hmmm interesting and I agree the 
DE's are *surprisingly* poor shots. I wonder could you look up one 
more GoF passage for me and tell me what exactly does Harry say to 
DD before he DD gets the infamous gleam in his eye.

this count is just afterwards, when Crouch!Moody is "half pulling, 
half carrying him" back to his office (Chp 35, pg 673 US version).  
Crouch!Moody certainly intends to kill Harry, yet he seems to have a 
good enough grip that he doesn't let go of Harry until they've 
reached their destination.

Well with this in mind I am willing to carry on the investigation 
under a presumption that harry needs to *conciously* perceive the 
threat for the magic to invoke.
Thanks again.
