Ceridwen:
Nope, not just Sydney.  Or Betsy.  Snape's hot, in the old-fashioned 
sense of intense.

Ceridwen:
I have to say this, since I think it every time someone mentions 
this:  What if James did take Snape's warning?  What if that's why he 
was so agreeable to changing SKs?

Snape tries to alter the inevitable course of events, but instead, 
changing that course makes it absolutely certain that the prophecy is 
put into action.  Every dire prophecy that spawns a story has the 
same sorts of things in play.  Oedipus's father tries to get rid of 
him, but he comes back; MacBeth & wife try to make the prophecy come 
true - which it does, but at a horrible cost and in all the wrong 
ways.  It seems that fiddling with a prophecy once it's given only 
exacerbates it, and here, Snape is fiddling, to his and the Potters' 
certain regret.

Just adding my own take on Snape's warning in a clearly Dire Prophecy 
sort of storyline.

Ceridwen.
