Yes, I meant that DD was NOT stupid for telling Harry about the 
prophecy when he did, at the end of OoP, not anytime sooner.  I think 
it worked out for the best, VM still doesn't know about the prophecy 
himself, and now Harry is aware of the connection and its danger, his 
tricks (namely Sirius' death).  And if HArry hadn't learned 
Occlumency to some degree with Snape, he will actually put some 
effort into it now.
