Hi. I am Olaf, glad and big, and this is my first post.
Whar I'm wondering is why, in SS, Voldemort/Quirrel didn't nip down 
to Devon and pinch some elixir from Nicholas Flamel? His house is 
probably a much easier target for a B&E job than Gringott's or 
Hogwarts. Even if he eventually needed the stone itself, he would 
have been in a much stronger position if he had a few shots of elixir 
under his belt. Anyone who had looked into the subject of the 
philosopher's stone would know that Nicholas Flamel was the one who 
discovered it. Obviously it would be hard to take the elixir from him 
by force, since it makes him immortal, but stealth and cunning would 
have been worth a try.
thank you.
Olaf, glad and big
