Potioncat:
Hmm, could be. The thing to remember, and I think you're touching on 
it, is that SWM isn't of the treatment by James, it's Snape's use of 
Mudblood. Many of us have presumed that Snape set aside three memories. 
But who knows how many memories can fit on a silver strand? I know my 
camera holds a heck of a lot of photos on an itty-bitty memory card. So 
there may have many of the same ones that we saw in DH.

Potioncat:
And I might have liked to see a birthday party for Albus Severus that 
Snape would have attended. "Gee, Uncle Sev, thanks for the bezoar."
