Jen R: Very compelling thought. I've been trying to think of other 
people we know from the Snape/MWPP era, but except for the 
Longbottoms, we don't know general ages of the people Moody points 
out in the original Order photo--the Prewett brothers, Benjy 
Fenwick, the Bones, Marlene Mckinnon, etc. ...Andromeda Tonks and 
Bertha Jorkins are probably too old for Snape's gang, although the 
quote doesn't specifically say the 'gang' was Snape's same year, 
just from Slytherin. In fact, it seems more likely he hung around 
with an older crowd like Lucius and his friends (perhaps Bella, 
Lestranges, etc?)since Malfoy and Snape know each other so well. 

It's a mystery--imagine that!!
