Potioncat:
I used to take anything Sirius said about Severus with several grains 
of salt...of course, I developed hypertension as a result so I had to 
stop.  Actually, it seems HBP may have confirmed some of Sirius's 
comments. But, to honestly answer your question, I find anything 
Sirius says about Snape to be very biased and not reliable. Same goes 
for what Snape says about the Marauders.

> Alla, who thinks that some other Sirius comments about Snape may 
turn out to be true too.

Potioncat:
Like the one about as far as he knew Snape had never even been 
accused of being an DE, and that Sirius didn't think Snape had been 
one? 

One can only hope. ;-)
