    Actually, I think Snape's reputed desire for the DADA job is one of
those red herrings that we've been discussing here lately.  There's no
real evidence that Snape wants the DADA job; we've not heard him talk
about it, we've not heard any of the teachers (with perhaps the
exception of Lupin, whose view of Snape is somewhat colored by their
history) say that Snape is after the job.  I wonder why JKR is setting
us up with this idea; where might it go in the future?
