Angie responds:
I would think the memory would have to be locked in her mind, or at 
least DD thinks so.  I believe that's one reason by DD wants to keep 
her at HW, for her protection, just in case LV does try to get her.  
Of course, I also think DD believes that Sybill has not finished -- 
that she still has at least one more good prophesy in her.  But what 
happens if she makes a real prediction when no one is around to hear 
her?  Like the tree that falls over in the forest, does she make no 
noise?  :)
