Has anyone else thought about how Snape's overhearing of the prophecy
must have influenced his treatment of both Harry and Neville?  Surely
Snape was able to figure out the two boys fingered by the prophecy with
the potential to defeat Voldemort.  So, was Snape so cruel to Neville
because he saw him as a threat, or was he trying to toughen Neville for
his possible encounter?

Just a thought,
LEH
