I would love to see a complete list of all the instances in which 
Harry's scar hurts. IMHO it still is far from clear what exactly it 
is that makes Harry's scar hurt. Dumbledore told us that Harry's scar 
hurts when Voldemort is close by or when Voldemort is feeling a 
particularly strong emotion. That still doesn't explain *why* Harry's 
scar hurts in those circumstances. That also doesn't explain the 
instances in which those circumstances don't seem to apply. There are 
a number of instances where Harry's scar hurts when Voldemort is not 
close by and does not seem to have a clear reason for feeling any 
particularly strong emotions. 

If you do make a list, I hope you will also include the possible cause
(s) (if they can be determined) of the pain in Harry's scar in each 
instance.
