***These hypotheses seem needlessly complex to me.  I always thought 
of Harry's burst of anger as perfectly justified, simply because 
Snape ALWAYS seems to be turning up at the most inopportune times for 
Harry.  This was just another episode in a long, long line of Snape 
interferences.  Harry is about to fry Malfoy, Snape appears, and OF 
COURSE Snape is going to punish Harry and let Malfoy off with a 
smirk - I'd be enraged, too.  And SSSusan summed it up nicely - his 
anger hasn't changed a bit, it's how he plans to deal with it that's 
different.  He's reached the point of not giving a tinker's dam what 
Snape thinks or what Snape will do.  All his respect for Snape is 
gone, even the grudging "well he IS a teacher" tiny bit of respect he 
used to have.  <sniff> Our little boy is growing up.
