"Because the Hippogriffs wouldn't have still been there? (;  (a little
_gentle_ sarcasm...) If Malfoy hadn't been whining and crying, they would
likely have still been studying the Hippogriffs, and they would have had
access to them anyway.  Do we ever hear what Hagrid did with all the others,
anyway?"

I think it's safe to assume that Hagrid teaches all of his classes at least
similarly. In Goblet of Fire, Cedric meets up with Harry and Cedric says
something to the effect of, "Hagrid's Blast-Ended Skrewts." Cedric is a
fifth-year, Harry's a fourth. Obviously Hagrid teaches some of the same
things to different years.

I think Fyre's main point is that Draco is the go-between on an awful lot of
events in the HP-verse. Yes, you can nitpick and say, "Snape provided the
spell/idea to Draco," but her very good point is that Draco is *involved* in
all of these little episodes. Maybe it's a coincidence, maybe it's all part
of Rowling's great plan. I, personally, like your ideas, Fyre. It's
definitely something to think about.
