Please direct me to a couple of good post that have answerred this 
questions.

1.  "The last shop was narrow and shabby, peeling gold letters over 
the door read 'Ollivanders:  Makers of Fine Wands since 382 B.C.  A 
single wand lay on a faded purple cushion in a dusty window."
  
  Is this wand important?  Purple seems to be a popular color in the 
books.


2.  At the end of the book, does DD give Harry the Elixir of life to 
save his life?  

  "Something gold was glinting just above him. The Snitch! He tried 
to
catch it but his arms were too heavy.
He blinked. It wasn't the Snitch at all. It was a pair of glasses.
How strange."

  The gold that was glinting just above him was DD using the PS/SS 
to make the Elixir of Life to save Harry.  He doesn't just blink, 
he's really out 3 days, just feels like a blink, that's why it feels 
strange to see a pair of glasses when he was sure it was something 
gold.  

  "'I arrived just in time to pull Quirrell off you –`
`It was you.'
`I feared I might be too late.'
`You nearly were. I couldn't have kept him off the Stone much 
longer –
`
 `Not the Stone, boy, you – the effort involved very nearly killed
you. For one terrible moment there, I was afraid it had. As for the
Stone, it has been destroyed.'"

  DD thought that Harry was about to die, so he did the only thing 
he could think of.  Nobody else was around, who would know?
