I gave a sort  of answer to Berit's question a while back when
trying to understand what DD meant when he said there are worse 
things than death. IMO there are - an eternal existence being one
of them. Can you think of anything worse?

Anne asks a cogent question arising from my argument - what 
would happen to Voldy if it is life in the room and he were exposed
to it? Being alive includes accepting all the pain, regrets, remorse
and responsibilities that arise from your own actions.
Could Voldy face those?
