  Did you ever notice that in HP&SS(#1) at the welcoming feast in the 
  beginning when Harry and Ron first meet Nearly Headless Nick, the 
  Gryffindor ghost, Nick states that he hasn't eaten anything in almost 
  400 years but in HP&CS(#2) Nearly Headless Nick has his 500th death 
  day party? He seemed to have jumped from 400 years dead to 500 years 
  dead in one year. Do you think that that is just a mistype or what??? 


Hi.
I actually noticed that too!  I would guess it's an author error.  As far as I know, ghosts can't ever eat after they die, so that's the only plausible explanation I can think of at the moment.
