I haven't posted since just after 9/11/01, when the question of how 
to deal with people who are just plain evil came up in earnest.  Now 
that what has happened has happeened, I have to comment on they way 
people are dealing with this evil.

If you read the few excerpts available from the most recent 
interviews, it becomes patently obvious that Snape is evil.  There 
is no way in the world for him to settle up with Harry.  In fact, 
JKR says that it is now as personal between them as it is between 
Harry and Lord Thingy, if not more so.

DD admits that he was wrong to believe Snape could put aside his 
hatred for James and Sirius.  JKR also points out that big brained 
DD does make mistakes.  This is a colossal one.  He trusted Snape's 
excuse in the hope of getting a spy, believing that DD's own 
Leglimens abilities were sufficient to protect him from deception, 
and his Occlumency enough to guard against unwanted disclosure.  
Wrong again.

Finally, a word about evil.  Good people have trrouble recognizing 
it, and more trouble accepting it.  Talk to a cop, or a prosecutor 
or a corrections officer and see who they think is the bad guy.  
They can accept that some seemingly normal people are evil, because 
they see them.  By book 7, we will all see.   MAF
