Perhaps a person/being/creature that is already familiar with a 
location does not need the secret-keeper to tell them of that 
location.  What I mean is, if a fidelius charm is cast on MY home, 
would I need the secret keeper to tell me where my home is?  Or, 
would I retain the knowledge because it is MY home?  We know Kreature 
couldn't reveal OotP info because Sirius told him not to right?  We 
also know Dobby could apparate/diapparate in Hogwarts, which 
supposedly, wizards and witches cannot.  Indeed, elves would make a 
useful ally for Voldemort.  Maybe this is going to be part of the 
book series plotline...
Lynnette, who thinks Snape is a good guy, even if he isn't 
necessarily a nice guy!
