   Never understood why Slughorn thought Dumbledore of all people would   
   be fooled by that memory.  Might as well have given him a memory of   
   Slughorn announcing he's going to fake his memory.   
      
   That's why I think it was a test for Harry.  Let him see a phony   
   memory, and learn how to acquire one.  Too bad those skills were never   
   actually used.
