Which is why Sirius described him as a (pardon me, I don't have my 
copy of GOF w/me) "slimy, greasy, oily kid ... who knew more curses 
when he got here than half the 7th year students." Or words to that 
effect.

Somewhere in the books it's mentioned that love potions aren't 
allowed at Hogwarts. Sorry, but I'm feeling nit-picky today. <g>

What's wrong with Snape being a SOB just because he's a SOB? There's 
plenty of them out there. I'm sure most of us have worked with/for a 
few of them. <g>

Let Snape be Snape!
