Buttercup:

Yes, good thinking. This must be the reason why JKR
had Umbridge asked how long each teacher had taught at
Hogwarts. We needed to find out that Snape had been
there the same length of time Dumbledore knew found
out about the prophecy. Snape has something to do with
the prophecy issue, I'm sure.
