Tammy replies:
First of all, you get standing ovation for a beautiful theory. I truly
love this group for all the beautiful theories you guys think up.
I merely have one issue (other than the one pippin brought up about
Hermione and Ron meeting Dumbledore in the entry hall).... As
Voldemort is a very powerful wizard even while he's in someone else's
body, shouldn't he have realized that Dumbledore is present? True,
Dumbledore could be more powerful in that he could fully cover his
presence, but I still can't help but feel that Voldemort would be able
to sense Dumbledore in the room.
