SSSusan:
Unless I'm misunderstanding your question, I don't think so.  GG, SS, 
HH & RR founded Hogwarts about 1000 years ago, right?  And when H/R/H 
learn about Nicholas Flamel, he's 665 years old.  Granted, the book 
itself which gave his age might have been a few years old, but I 
don't imagine it was 335 years old.

Or are you saying that maybe GG made the SS and changed himself into 
NF when he was 300-some years old?  Doesn't sound very likely to me, 
but do you have a reason why you think he would he do this?

Siriusly Snapey Susan, who's about as good at math as JKR so won't be 
surprised if I'm wrong somehow....
