random observation
So I'm re-reading OotP, and I just passed the part when Harry felt that Voldemort was "the happiest he'd been in 14 years." The trio assumes that this is because the Death Eaters escaped from Azkaban, but it was also the night that Harry realized where the corridor and the black door was, thus making it easier for Voldemort to lure him there. So, not only did Voldemort get his death eaters back, but he also had a huge breakthrough in getting the "weapon." And who was the one who facilitated Harry figuring out about the corridor? You got it, our old pal Snape and his shady Occlumency lessons. Although I know a lot of people have sympathy for Snape and really believe that he's going to turn out to be not so bad after all, I really think that he's letting his hatred of Harry (and James, Sirius, etc.) get in the way and he'll probably end up setting Harry up for a very big fall. I think he's more interested in taking out his revenge on Harry for what the MWPP gang did to him than he is in helping Dumbledore.
