Now Siriusly Snapey Susan:

As I said in message 85438 a few days ago...

But please keep in mind that it was just *Hagrid* who said, "There
wasn't a witch or wizard who went bad that wasn't in Slytherin"
[paraphrased]. In CoS, JKR says that MORE of the dark wizards came
from Slytherin than from any of the other houses; she doesn't say
they ALL came from Slytherin. 
<snip>
When I read this statement in CoS last night, I was able to take
Hagrid's SS/PS comment as just a tad bit of hyperbole.
