According to the Lexicon, Dumbledore was born in 1840 and Hagrid was 
born in 1929. So I guess you do the math. Lori, but remember book 5 
was written for 1995 or 1996, i foget which now. ok i looked, book 5 
is written for 1995. So if Hagrid and Dumbledore survive the final 
battle then, Dumbledore will be how old, now, 163 and Hagrid will be 
74. but that is this year not 8 years ago. lori
