Ah well, you may be right about that. I'm not sure it's WIDELY known, 
though I assumed some people would be aware of the connection, based 
on the pensieve scenes in GoF. If memory serves, there were 
inquiries, and Snape's name came up at Karkaroff's (I think) trial.

Let no one say I'm not a fan of cockamamie theories, but the gypsy 
one seems terrribly weak.
