Jamie:  
I'm quite sure Snape can never be described as a "misunderstood 
hero". [Pause here to enjoy silly vision of Snape kneeling before 
Harry, offering his apologies and proclaiming that he's loved him as 
a son all along.:-}]  He's an awful person.  All I meant is that 
perhaps Harry's prejudice is blinding him to the possibility that 
Snape has been working on DD's side all along.>

Jamie:  
I hope so.  I look forward to seeing these two try to get 
along.  Maybe the Occlumency lessons were only a warm up.
