Could we perhaps stop this practice of calling Snape a greasy git? 
It's one thing for Ron (I think it was Ron) giving him this title. 
Ron is very young, and "greasy git" is the sort of thing a boy would 
say, but its quite another thing for adults to use such a juvenile 
expression.  Fair enough if you don't like Snape - I agree there is 
plenty to dislike - but can we please stop using this puerile phrase 
when a trawl through the dictionary will produce dozens of much 
better alternatives.
Sylvia (who is sorry to sound schoolmarmish but really feels quite 
strongly about this)
