-	The Prophecies must be real, or the DoM wouldn't take the trouble to
-	collect and label and preserve them. And yet the future can't be fixed
-	and absolute, predetermined, or the element of Choice on which JKR and
-	Dumbledore place so much emphasis would be meaningless. As I read it,
-	the Prophecies are ambiguous and can be fulfilled in various ways, but
-	their fulfillment in *some* form is inevitable

Amey:
Yes, they don’t have any names, and that’s why we have seen questionmark in the prophesy’s name. By the time prophesy was made, the Dark Lord was only one, nobody else in sight, but the one mentioned in the prophesy was yet to be born. So it was upto LV (in a away) to fulfill the prophesy one way or other. Also, what happened to him whne he tried to do that shows us that prophesies are not always fulfilled, they are not absolute recording of the event. 
I wonder what happened to the prophesy at the end of PoA, is it recorded and kept in DoM? Who recorded it? How come Dumbledore didn’t know about it? Does it still have the name of Sirius on it or it is now renamed to read Peter’s name?

-	When Harry was teaching DA the Patronus charm in OoP, they seemed to
-	do better than Harry did on his first shot at it.  Both Cho and
-	Hermione where able to summon an animal, and all Harry was able to
-	manage at first was some wisps vapor.

Amey:
They were in a room with no Boggart/ Dementors, harry had a boggart to face. Look how easily he produced the petronus in his OWLs.

-	I really bristled when I read this.  Didn't Dobby give Harry the Gillyweed at the last minute to dive into the lake in GoF?  But then it occurred to me, wait a minute, of course Lucius would want Harry to survive this task to meet old Voldy in the cemetery.  Kneasy, maybe you're on to something...

Amey:
But by that time, Dobby was free, he was no longer serving Malfoy family. Or was he? Are you saying that Dobby was sent to Hogwarts to keep an eye on Harry and Dumbledore? Hmmm
 a thought worth pursuing
.
