This also reminds me of another thing that causes me not to believe in the
good Snape theory.  In chapter two, he told Bella that it was his
information that led to the murder of Emiline Vance.  From that moment, I
stopped believing in unlikable but basically good at heart Snape.  I didn't
want to believe Dumbledore could be so wrong.  I didn't buy Snape returned
to the good side over his remorse over the death of the Potters either.
Codswallop.  He hated James, and in the scene with Harry after murdering
Dumbledore, he called Lily a mudblood.  doesn't sound like he loved her all
that much to me.  When we arrived at Dumbledore's death, when Snape came
rushing onto the roof, my friend was cheering, and I said, Oh crap!  i agree
with Jim, that the idea that it was all an elaborate plan of Dumbledore's
implies knowledge of too many other things, and being able to absolutely
count on everything falling perfectly into place to make it happen.
