-	But my question is... why?  Why does he even *feel* this guilt?  
-	Remember book 2?  He killed Tom Riddle easily enough.  He was, in 
-	fact, rather proud of the accomplishment, even years later...<snip>
-	No sympathy for the one who killed his godfather, and yet Harry 
-	feels regrets about killing the one who murdered his father and 
-	mother?  It's all very weird to me.  

Amey:
I am sure that was in moment of heat. Remember him saying in PoA, that he wants to meet Sirius to kill him, yet when the time came, he couldn’t do it. That is one of the differences between him and LV. He cannot contemplate being a murderer, LV knows about the prophesy and immediately starts planning for the murder. He even takes over Harry’s body in OOtP to make Dumbledore kill Harry.

-	Does anyone want to contribute to the 
-	ONLY IFS list?
-	Telling Sirius about the Frank Bryce dream.
-	Telling Dumbledore his dreams in OOTP.

Amey:
1.	Telling Dumkbledore he is hearing voices in CoS
2.	Asking Giny to Yule Ball
3.	Asking Cho to Yule Ball first

-	On another note, you don't think Ron will die? I have
-	been convinced, sadly. This is from The North Tower
-	and editorial by Maline Freden and mugglenet.com

-	"Reason 2: McGonagall's Chess game
-	"Twice, Ron only just noticed in time that Harry
-	and Hermione were in danger."

Amey:
I wonder if the chess game counts as one of the dangers? Anyways, the analysis is really cool, I am surely going to take some time to think more on it, so be sure to read more  from me on this point. :D
