Hello,

This may have been discussed before, but I couldn't find the posts.  In GoF,
Dumbledore tells Harry about the torture, and subsequent insanity, of
Neville's parents.  Does anybody have any thoughts as to who might have been
their torturer (it took place after Voldemort's fall) or as to what
accusations they might have made that Dumbledore said were unreliable due to
their mental condition?

Also, why do you think Snape is so mean to Neville?  Is it just because he's
a mean guy and Neville is afraid of him and does things incorrectly in his
class?  Or is there something else going on there?
