You're actually preaching to the choir here, Steve, as I [don't 
shoot me, Lupinlore or Alla] do think DD made the right choice to 
leave Harry there.  I was wondering what the fact (if it's accepted 
as fact) that DD *didn't* know everything that happened there would 
do to those who've argued that DD should have stepped in.  I 
wondered if they would then argue that DD never should have left 
Harry there if he couldn't be monitored.

Alla:

Susan, Susan, Susan. You know I love you, right? Why would I want to 
shoot you? :) Now, whether I want to smack you or not, it is a 
different question entirely. :) ( just kidding of course)

To answer your substantive question - sure if Dumbledore did not 
know what was happening it would get him off the hook with me, but 
sorry to going back to his OOP speech, but I think he pretty much 
shoots "I did not know" opportunity in the foot. I think Alby knew 
really well what Harry will go through. Besides, Minerva warned him 
right on the spot and she was only watching him for a day.

So, the hook for Alby is still there, sorry. :)


Just my opinion,

Alla
