Hello ladies and gentlemen. A few answers in order to crarify any 
misunderstandings. Harry himself in OOTP  admits that he cannot lie 
to Hermione when he looks at her eyes. He is 100% sure that he will 
betray himself because she will see the guilt into his eyes. That's 
why every time he lies to her, he avoids facing her. I remind you 
the key words that I use were "face to face". As for her advices a) 
She doesn't need his permission in order to express herself in order 
to help him as we all well know, b) even to the cases when he thinks 
that Hermione is wrong, at the end he admits - to himself most of 
the times - that she was right all along and c) we are talking of 
course about cases where Hermione is aware of them. Lastly I want to 
apologise to all of you because I have the impression that I express 
myself sometimes vaguely. It is not intentional. I am not an English 
native speaker and I still can't  express myself in perfect English 
language. Thank you again for putting up with me.

Cheers,
Paul
