Cassie was not saying that Snape is evil.  Exactly the opposite.  She's
saying that Snape is another example of a character who is certainly
irrefutably mean and nasty, but *not necessarily* evil.  Just like Draco
-- he's mean & nasty like Snape, but neither of them are necessarily
evil.  Draco might well be just as complex as Snape!

Hey Doreen -- please try to make some distinguishing barrier between
other people's thoughts (quotes) and your own responses.  I'm having a
really hard time figuring out where your thoughts begin in some
messages.  Put a line of dashes or equal signs or *something* as a
separator between quoted thoughts of others & your responses!  Thanks!!
(That goes for everyone but Doreen's posts are the only ones I'm having
trouble with at the moment).
