What I'm wondering is if Dumbledore is going to try to send Snape back into 
dealings with He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, Snape would have to be gone for quite 
a while. Which raises the question will we have a different potions teacher? 
Then the DADA teacher could be left alone and the Potions teacher might be 
evil. All in all JKR has amazing plot twists and surprises in her books so 
anything could happen. Plus I think she might want to give us a break over 
seeing Snape torture the Griffindors but I have this gut feeling that poor 
Severus will die before the series is over. 

On Another subject could anyone fill me in on their ideas on Dumbledore's 
"look of triumph" in the end of GoF? I have a couple but I'd love to hear 
others!
