Susan:
Carol, I'm intrigued as to why you believe Snape's now in great 
danger of being exposed because of the MoM affair.  Do you think 
Voldy & Lucius believe DD only came because Snape must have told him 
what was happening?  

I'm not sure I can see an obvious 1+1=2 thing here for Voldy [DD 
shows up + Snape is at Hogwarts = Snape is double-crossing Voldy].  
This may be because I've been persuaded that Neri is right about 
Snape & other DEs working on a Need-to-know basis and Voldy may have 
believed Snape didn't even know about the MoM plans.  

Can you say more?  Is there another reason they would have of 
blaming him for things that I'm not seeing?
