Not really, Gunthar- it's a very common mistake (sez the woman who's been 
on more fan boards than she will admit).

Interesting note thought- Nicholas Flamel was 665 when they had to destroy 
the Philosopher's Stone (the proper name- Sorceror's was the American name 
cause they though we wouldn't be interested in Philosophers). Dumbledore 
said that he had enough elixir to keep alive until he could settle his 
affairs. So... wonder how old he was when...

Personally I think Dumbledore is pretty cool and very fit for a guy that's 
over 150 years old, don't you? And then there's Griselda Marchbanks, who's 
old enough that she gave Dumbledore his NEWT exam (Charms, I think). Wow.

Of course, my personal hero, Minerva McGonaghal, is 70something. Hope I'm 
that formidable then! (Not to mentionsharp!)
