RMM:
If Hagrid is one thing, it is truthful!
Good quote, I hadn't run across that one for awhile.  Amazing what 
those early chapters in book one contain!

My speculation about James Potter was that he was attracted by the 
Death Eaters, but that Lily "saved" him in the end.  Lily Evans 
started dating James in their 7th year at Hogwarts.  Hagrid's
comments 
refer to when James and Lily were in their 7th year.
Secondly, if one is being recruited by Voldemort, would it be public 
knowledge?
For instance, one's own neighor or friends will not know that you are 
being asked to join the Freemasons.  It will be completely quiet.

Did anyone see the movie "Skulls"??  Good example of what I am
talking 
about.
