I still like to think Snape is a "wise-guy" and was actually 
recruited by Dumbledore to be the spy in the Death-eater camp 1st.  
The books don't really say how LV recuited do they?  Wormtale's 
accounts in P0A talk about LV forcing him with "weapons you can't 
imagine".  Other DE were at school with him who saw him as a 
leader.  I like Snapes character too much to want him to be 
completely evil.  I want him to have redemption.  One thing I never 
liked about Lord of the Rings was that Smegal was wholly consumed by 
Golem in the end.  I don't want Snape to end up in the Burning Pit.
