can't remember ever hearing of it.

We all know that if you wittness death, you can see
thestrals.  
Harry can see the thestrals after Cedrics death.  It
has been debated before about seeing his parent's
death, but not having full knowledge as a baby.

Well, didn't Harry see Professor Quirrel die in PS/SS?
So, Shouldn't he be able to see Thestrals by book 2?

just a question.

Cassie (me): 

I've always thought that Harry fainted BEFORE Quirrell died.  If so, then 
Harry would not've actually seen him die.  And even if Quirrell did die before 
Harry was unconcious,  maybe he didn't see the Thestrals because he did not 
actually watch Quirrell die.
