Thankyou!  Also, thankyou for keeping my "last nickel" safe and sound.  I'd 
have missed it.  lol!

PJ:
I can clearly see your Snape and agree he's just as valid as mine.   The 
first handshake across the DDM! and OFH!Snape fence.  :-)

I guess sometimes it's the minute things that define our Snapes as DDM!, 
OFH! or ESE! rather than the big BANGY things.  Which is one reason why 
there are so many of them floating around.   But as we try to get a handle 
on why DDM! would do this, or why OFH! would bother to do that, it helps to 
know there's no one size fits all for *any* designator and that *our* idea 
of what would make a DDM!, etc. are not necessarily what the poster's idea 
of them are as we all interpret what we read in our own unique ways....

Might go a long way in avoiding misunderstandings (not to mention knock 
down, drag outs) <g>  It also shows why Sydney's plan to rid the world of 
OFH!Snape will never work regardless of how many showdowns at the OK Corral 
there are.  ;-)
