oooh, please stop the caps, shouting is never nice. Smile

Hermione and even DD probably didn't know how helpful the vision thingies would end up becoming.

I've been wondering if it would have even been possible for Harry to block out Lord V's thoughts completely since:

Spoiler:

Part of Lord V's soul lived inside of Harry

well it was worth a try. It was to prevent Voldy from seeing in to Harry's mind, not so much vice-versa. becasue as we see at the end of OotP...voldy seeing into harry's mind is not a good thing.

Those visions had already proven dangerous in the past. It was through those visions that Voldy planted himself killing Sirius into Harry's head. He could have planted other fake visions as well. It was extremely dangerous to follow what the visions told Harry. The only problem was that Harry had nothing else to go on.

well in ootp, not learning occlumency proved detrimental to harry... but in DH its not harry but voldemort... even if voldie couldnt control himself, but if harry continually employed occlumency against him, then he would not have known about the Elder Wand, or the location of the ravenclaw horcrux.
