<snip> I certainly don't see anything there that could be an error or
in need of any kind of correction. I doesn't appear to give away an
secrets or clues we shouldn't have at this point in time. And I can
certainly see other areas of the book the could have used a rewrite
more that this particular section.

Lynnette:
This starts on page 588-US version, and is 3/4 of the way down the
page. I cannot see anything either, but that is normal for me, LOL!
However, the next paragraph talks about Harry's next Occlumency
lesson and Snape questions Harry about a memory he spied whilst
invading Harry's brain. The memory of a man kneeling in a darkened
room. Snape asks Harry how that man and room came to be in his
(Harry's) head. I wish they would have noted exactly what was
changed or deleted!
Lynnette, who thinks Snape IS a good guy, even if he is not a NICE
guy!
