Mags:

I just had to respond to this because I'm glad I'm not the only 
one who holds this theory (or at least considers it possible). I can't see any way, if Pensieves are accurate & the 'Worst Memory' occurred before the Prank, that Snape could *not* know what he 
was walking into, or at least have a pretty good idea. 

Which leads into all sorts of interesting wonderings:

-What he was doing going down there anyway, in that case?
-Did Sirius know Snape knew?
-Is Snape's resentment of James' rescue exacerbated by the fact 
that from his point of view, he didn't need rescuing?
