Interesting question... maybe they boiled the potion under NHN so that the potion vapour would pass through him! I don't know!

"Well, Muggle's aren't supposed to have known about magic, are they? How 
could Flamel possibly be a muggle? Not every famous wizard on the card took part in the fight against Voldemort, did they? If that was the case then it would have been impossible for Merlin and the other wizards to have been on the cards. So, assuming that he is a wizard, he would most likely still 
have a card wouldn't he? Sorry if I sound dumb in all this, it is just not 
clicking in my brain yet!"

I don't think Flamel was a Muggle either...but... with your point about Merlin: Merlin lived ages ago, long before the time of Voldemort. He obviously couldn't have taken part in the war. However, Flamel (although old) *was* alive at the time and *was* a friend of Dumbledore, so I would have expected him to be involved in the war *a bit* at least, on the Light Side. Maybe he was though, and we just don't know it yet!

a Norwegian Ridgeback. The others are a Common Welsh Green, a Chinese 
Fireball, and one other whose species escapes me.  I'm pretty sure 
Norbert is the only NR to show up in the series thus far."

Damn! I'm sorry, I didn't have my books to hand. Thanks!

who giggled very loudly today, reading her newly arrived French Chamber of Secrets, when she discovered that Tom Riddle (aka Tom Jeudusort)'s middle name is now Elvis!
