Why didn't the POTIONS MASTER suggest a Draught of Peace to Harry 
when he was having trouble clearing his mind.  He *knew* Harry was 
having dreams, he knew Harry was angry and having a hard time coping 
with everything that was happening at school.  It just seems like 
another example of how as much as Snape could help, he doesn't.

Sue, who knows Harry et. all could have thought of that too, but is 
it so much for the teacher to teach?
