Mike:
OK, I can see that. Another case, for you, of not getting the story on 
page, instead being told to accept the story without proof. We saw 
proof of what the Elder Wand *could* do, but never really saw what the 
Elder Wand *wasn't* doing that convinced Voldemort the thing ain't 
happening for him.

I'm willing to accept that Voldemort could sense the connection wasn't 
there, you are not. That's fair.
