Carol:
I guess I took the phrase "late bloomer" not as much as being old but older 
than a normal wizard when they normally find out.

As for the statement you made:
>snip
As for Dudley being magical, he would
have exhibited signs like those Harry exhibited at age ten and younger
if he had any magic in him at all.

Kathy:
This is moreless what I was referring to. In SS pg. 58 Harry tells Hagrid: 
"I think you must have made a mistake. I don't think I can be a wizard" 
Hagrid says "Never made things happen when you was scared or angry?"
This is what I meant when I said that the Dursley's spoil Dudley so as to 
not allow him to get upset which could result in him showing signs of being 
magical.

Just a thought.

Kathy
