Alla:

Not just good Occlumenc, a "superb" Occlumenc, he is :) 

Hmmm, Nora, Occlumenc must be good with his emotions, too true. But 
here we go again back to whether Snape wins an Oscar or he does not.

To me Shrieking Shack and end of Occlumency look indeed as genuine 
rage,as I said many times.

Since I don't question the fact of Snape being a superb occlumence, 
I must somehow put the two together and I don't know how.

Help me, would you? Could it be that good Occlumenc does not require 
full relaxaion indeed?
