But that's just it -- it's NOT the writings of JKR. JKR had Hary
unable to do the Unforgiveable Curses before because he didn't MEAN
them ("You have to MEAN them, Potter!"), not because he "never had it
in him." Once he MEANT them, he could do them. Some see that as an
inconsistency in canon -- but not I.
