Robin:
Well, my idea is that if Harry is a Horcrux he is an UNINTENDED
Horcrux and Voldy doesn't realilze it.  If that is the case perhaps
his position as a horcrux is a bit different and there are aspects
that don't apply to intended Horcruxes....I do like your idea about
free choice and it contradicting the idea of being a Horcrux.
Hmmmm....I will have to ponder on this...
