Well, not ALL the DEs were subdued. There WAS still Bella, at least. You 
may be right (I've only read DH once), but then that leaves me wondering 
why they were all standing around spectating as three teenage girls went 
up against the Dark Side's most fiersome (sp?) DE, or why McGonagall, 
Flitwick and Shackley were left to finish off LV by themselves. Surely 
even LV would be no match against a couple hundred wizards.

Yeah, I realize good story needs both a major battle and a final 
mano-a-mano between the hero and the baddie, so this really isn't that 
big an issue for me. I was more bothered by LV's plunging IQ. With Harry 
having survived TWO AKs, and Voldy nearly doing *himself* in with the 
second, you'd think maybe he'd realize YAAK was probably not the 
smartest idea. Methinks LV deserved to died just for sheer stupidity.

And I STILL think instead of trying to confuse V to death, Harry should 
have just said, "Ya know why you can't kill me? Because I'm the Seventh 
Friggin' Horcrux you blithering idiot!"
