now Tcy:
This thread got me thinking about something I just re-read in PS/SS.
Dumbledore is continually correcting Harry calling our dear
Severus "Snape" rather than "Professor Snape." It caught my
attention, because Dumbledore never corrects Harry when he refers to
Quirrel as "Quirrel". Is it just a slip on Dumbledore's part - or is
there a reason for it?
