colebiancardi back again:

true, true.  However, Sirius never held back his hatred for Snape and
vice versa;  I mean, what if Lupin had bit Snape?  Then Snape becomes
a furry problem as well.  

Sirius and Snape never got over their hatred for each other.  Just as
Snape didn't cry buckets of tears over Sirius' demise, I am going to
go out on a limb here and state, in my humble opinion, I doubt Sirius
would have been remorseful over Snape's demise if it had come to that.
 I also believe, and this isn't a stretch by any means, that there is
no love lost between the two of them.  

The "prank" was Sirius's idea alone (although, I wouldn't be surprised
if Peter knew about it before hand) and when James found out about it,
he knew that Sirius had gone too far.

I don't believe that Sirius forgot how dangerous a werewolf could be -
he didn't in PoA.
