Me:
Keep in mind these houses are most likely setup for their differences to keep them competitive, and we all know competitive situations can get fairly testy.
So in actuallity it's not to much to expect the hatred to grow rather than subside over the 1000 years.
When looking at it I am a bit surprised in the group Harry Hermione and Ron all being Griffendor.
I would have much more expected to see groups comprised of 1 of each house.
Generally speaking you see a leader (gryffindor) a brain (hufflepuf) a fighter (ravenclaw) working together against evil (slytherin)
We do see those traits in the group of 3 but their all Gryff's.
If anything I could see that there would be a greater chance that the 3 houses would group together against the Slytherin (they kinda do)
