Weird how Dumbledore and Snape try to save Harry from falling off a 
broom, but I recall Angelina and Wood falling off in SS/PS and no 
one trying to soften their fall.  Then again, I have bad memory and 
I'm at work, so could someone please correct me if I'm wrong.



I tried to get out of this conversation, but I can't help but 
comment on Harry's not thanking Snape.  Let's face it, he doesn't 
like Snape.  He's going to feel funny thanking Snape, someone who he 
doesn't like saved him.  Who wants to thank someone you don't like, 
it's admitting your wrong and it'll show in your face.  Harry 
doesn't know how to hide his dislike for Snape.  So if he were to go 
up to Snape and thank him, Snape see that Harry doesn't really want 
to thank him.  I'm sure Snape wasn't very grateful to James when 
James save his life.  Imagine Snape trying to thank James?!  It 
wouldn't be sincere at all and I bet he would have made a nasty 
remark.  I think he would have prefered to have been killed.  If 
Harry were to thank him now, Snape would just brush it off in some 
way to make Harry not like him even more.  Though, I believe there 
will be a time when everything will be all "lovey dovey" between 
them.

Are we sure that Snape is aware that Harry knows he tried to save 
him SS/PS?  I never thought Snape knew.
