Joan of Anarchy:
You're right, Doug. Hee.

The AK did not rebound in the Forbidden Forest, because Lily did not
sacrifice herself that time. She only sacrificed herself in Godric's
Hollow

doug:
I am resigning myself to "It's Magic" as the only explanation.

The AK rebounded in Godric's Hollow because Lily's protection was in  
Harry after her death.

And the rebounding AK destroyed Voldemort's body and blasted the  
house apart for no necessary reason, except for emotional excess.

However the AK in the forest wasn't rebounded upon Voldy, yet he  
suffered the effects of something...
