magic in the past, especially when under exteme
stress. Perhaps the jar simply exploded.

A Goldfeesh:
I've seen it suggested on this list in the past that
perhaps Snape accidently exploded the jar himself.
(I'm not sure if you {silverdragon} were referring to
Harry or Snape exploding the jar.)

Also from earlier on in this thread Melpomene said:

There was NO excuse for Harry to look in that
Pensieve. NONE. I don't care if Snape was baiting him.
<snip> Why would it enter Snape's mind that Potter was
looking in that pensieve for information on James and
Lily? Oh no, Potter wasn't looking for Potters, he was
looking for more "Fun with Snivellus" and we all know
it. 

 (Elle):
I think that Harry was just being nosey (as usual.) 
If he were really looking to have some "Fun with
Snivellus" to laugh about later with Ron and Hermione,
he totally *hit paydirt* with what he saw in the
pensieve.  But he never even told Ron and Hermione
what he saw, now did he?

A Goldfeesh:
I believe Melpomne is being misunderstood here:  I
believe she means that *Snape* thinks that  "Oh no,
Potter wasn't looking for Potters, he was looking for
more "Fun with Snivellus" and we all know it."   Not
that Harry was looking for a way to get at Snape.
