Valky Now:
I don't understand? I am *not* proposing that the collapse of the 
passageway had anything at all to do with the events of May/June 
1993. 

My theory is that the passage way was disillusioned to *appear* 
collapsed by Tom Riddle and made impenetrable using Ginny at 
Christmas of 1992. And is now some form of access available 
exclusively to Tom in and out of Hogwarts.

Therefore consistent with the story from Fred and George that the 
tunnel was not collapsed before winter and was collapsed after 
winter.

I don't know if I am making myself clear, because the post you have 
shown has very little relevance to what I have theorised.
