Betsy Hp:
But wouldn't you say that Snape's true allegiance is a rather *huge* 
issue for the next book?  Isn't that why this group is often 
dominated by Snape threads?  And if Emmeline (who Snape claims to 
have a key part in killing) is not really dead it may mean she's 
alive *because* of Snape.  Which means she may well vouch for Snape, 
which means Harry might be more open to receiving help from Snape. 

Honestly, I believe Snape is the best source of support Harry could 
hope for in his effort to defeat Voldemort.  Ain't that irony? <g>
