I originally thought Trelawney might be referring to either Harry or
Snape in this scene.  However, not to discount anyone's research,
which I found fasinating, but I am now listening to HBP on DVD.  As I
already know the events that will come, I am now thinking that the the
dark young man who dislikes the questioner is actually forshadowing
the events that will happen in this chapter.   In other words, when
Dumbledore meets Tom Riddle for the first time - conflict, violence,
troubled, dark, young, and dislikes answering DD's questions.  

any thoughts on that?
