I only have time for a quick post, but I wanted to acknowledge 
misquoting Alla.

I said:

And Alla clarified:

Sorry that I got that quote wrong; I was going from memory.

I also said:

And Alla replied:

A question -- are you really saying that Snape was *justified* in 
calling Lily a Mudblood, Alla?  Or are you saying that it was an 
forgivable mistake given the stress Snape was under at the time?  To 
me, there's a difference.
