Excellent thought about Kreacher being the source of Voldemort's
knowledge of the Scar Connection. At last something brilliant
and new.

I've always felt that Voldemort was sensing or receiving 
feelings from Harry, but to a much lesser degree and I also
suspect Voldemort failed to realize what they were.

For example, when Harry and the Weasleys are about ready to
Portkey out of Dumbledore's office, when Harry and Dumbledore's
eyes lock, Harry had the urge to attack Dumbledore.

Now from Voldemort's perspective, he is sitting around having
a late night cup of tea, his thoughts wander to Dumbledore,
and as a vision of Dumbledore rises in his thoughts, he is
infuriated by the meddling of fool and has the urge to kill
him.

Voldemort doesn't realize that it is Harry's momentary 
obsession with Dumbledore that is bringing these thoughts
to his mind, nor does he realize the image in his mind of
Dumbledore is being transmitted by Harry. He thinks this is
just a wandering thought that has entered his mind. Still,
he has a very real rage against Dumbledore which is 
transmitted back to Harry.

Keep in mind that Harry has a bit of Voldemort in him, but
Voldemort does not really have a similar bit of Harry in
himself. Yes, he has Harry's blood, but that is quite 
different than a soul-bit. 

So, I predict that Harry's connection to Voldemort is much 
stronger than Voldemort's connection to Harry. To some extent
the bit of himself in Harry does transmit both ways; as we 
see Voldemort can inject images into Harry's mind. But 
Voldemort in a sense it tranmitting those images to himself,
to his soul-bit in Harry. Harry does not have a similar 'bit'
in Voldemort, so the connection in that direction is there
but limited.

And that is the whole point I am making. I DO believe the
connection is two way, but V->H is much stronger than H->V.

A lot of talking for a small point.

in Harry. I don't think Voldemort is similarly receptive.
Receptive to a degree, but not similarly receptive.
