Oh, I actually in agreement with your post. I think it kind of 
supports my line of reasoning. :o)

I guess I just wanted to add to mine that even if Snape will turn out 
to be Slyth, I still want him to be a trouble for the Hat ( maybe, 
contrary to Harry he insisted on going to Slytherin), but I still 
think Gryffindor would be funnier.



Alla, who thinks that being in Slyhterin should not be bad, but who 
also thinks that JKR thinks that it is kinda bad. :o)
