Me:
I think he was ambivalent.  I expect there will be
more discussion of this incident (obviously the banner
event of book 5) in the next volume.  I would not be
surprised to hear DD or HG speculate that *at some
level* (i.e. unconsciously) Snape took the risk of
leaving Harry alone with the pensieve hoping that
Harry would see how awful his father had been to
Snape.  I have always felt that *one of* the (many)
reasons Snape hates Harry is that he thinks that Harry
has always hated him, prejudicially, starting from
HP's first Welcome Feast.    

cheers
Idlerat, who has never visited Theory Bay but who
would certainly want to take advantage of reduced
rates at the Royal George
