Harry, Snape, and the Pensieve

[Ebony Elizabeth]

No: HPFGUIDX 1687

I'm not sure if this is a FAQ or not, but I just finished listening 
to the chapter on the Pensieve and was fascinated by something.  

Don't have the text of GoF in front of me, but from what I remember 
at the end of the chapter Harry's face changed into Snape's in the 
Pensieve.  Then Dumbledore says something to the effect of "a 
connection I could have made without assistance."  Remember one of 
the stated purposes of the Pensieve is so that the user/owner can 
study patterns and connections between events.  

I wonder if this has any significance.  I am almost positive it has 
been mentioned by someone here who is much more detail-oriented than 
I am.
