We learn in the new book that a person's Patronus can change if they

I'll bet it's a Phoenix.

I simply don't buy the Patronus-change-thing.
First of all - if a Patronus changes that easy (change of emotions) how 
on earth would it be possible for Order-members to keep up with which 
Patronus belongs to who?
After all - it is their way of communicating with each other - they 
have to know what each other's Patronus looks like.
Second - I still read Snape's comment to Tonks about her *new* Patronus 
as sarcastic / mocking - and no, not mocking because of her feelings 
but mocking as in "I know who you really are!"
