Or maybe DD is showing Harry how to use the penseive, and they are 
looking at HARRY's memories of Godric's Hollow.  Maybe DD thinks 
Harry is old enough now to revisit that evening, and maybe it will 
provide DD with information he needs - like who else was there.

We were introduced to the idea of "mind reading" in previous books, 
and we know that DD (and Snape too) is able to select memories to 
place in the penseive.  Harry doesn't know how to do that yet, but he 
is the only one on "our side" that we know of with retrievable 
memories of Godric's Hollow.
