 O.k. i went and checked and Hagrid does say that it happened on 
halloween. But that doesn't disproove my new theory that wizards 
perform more powerfull magic on halloween. Voldemort chooses that 
night to kill them and Lily is able to use old magic to save Harry 
from a curse that has killed loads of  really powerfull wizard's!
