Yep eggplant, I agree, at face value, far from hopeless for Harry and
Dumbledore. Of course deadly for Snape, due to the whole unbreakable
vow thing.. but otherwise, there's no reason to think Harry couldn't
have taken out the same number of DE's that he did, and Draco, of
course would have stood by in stunned silence, his wand by his side,
watching Harry Potter stupefy his team. Snape's dead on the floor, but
Draco wouldn't rush to judgement that Harry or Dumbledore killed him
would he? ;)

LOL! we're all stark raving!! <bg>
I genuinely think that there is more to the scene than meets the eye,
coming from a 'serious snapeoholic' such as myself (ROFL!!) who
would've guessed? But I think, you''l find that the main channel of
this debate is not split Snape Lover from Snape Hater, but between
Dumbledore's fans and Dumbledores pitiers. at least, I know that's how
it is for me, I *still* (yeah I do still...) think the Tower scene was
an orchestration of Dumbledore's genius, it's just too perfect, there
is almost no way Voldemort could *see* anything but Dumbledore
*losing*, but that's how you *win* a game of chess, the opposition
never *sees* you coming, and niether do the onlookers <g>

Valky
back in the fray... for a space... or two :)
