Alla:
My bad, I thought I was clear - this is the trouble with RL
analogies. They are only helpful sort of.
Harry knows that he can became insane from Cruciatus, not dead. I do
not see how it
is much difference though.
Sure, Harry later uses the spell when he knows what the spell does.
And I cannot tell anybody what to think LOL, I can only say what I
think.
And indifference and neglect? Of whom? Of somebody who throws Crucio
at
you? I do not see how DD's quote is applicable, sorry.
