I've also wondered why we haven't ever seen much potion use or 
transfiguration going on at Hogwarts.  There are lots of charms, 
hexes and curses flying around the hallways.  We've been introduced 
to potions and several transfiguration spells in class that we never 
see again.  (Of course, no one has needed buttons or pin cushions 
yet.)

Also, with all his knowledge of "curses" you'd think Snape could 
have come up with a calming spell for Harry.
