That is just my point.  There doesn't seemto have been any thunder 
and lightening at the time the "prank" happened.  All very well for 
DD to take a calm and forgiving attitude many years after in talking 
to Harry, but what sort of a punishment did he hand out at the time?
I acknowledge that children can get up to really dangerous things. My 
own certainly have and I have myself, but it never involved 
deliberately putting someone at risk of death or serious injury.
And now I'm starting to worry about why Snape's father never did 
anything about it.  It all sounds like a really nasty cover-up with 
the golden boys getting off scot-free and poor bloody Snape feeling 
more alone than ever.

than anything in the world)
