timeline straight in my own mind, because I do think that Tom Riddle's
history is going to be an important theme in the next book.  I
remember a series of old drawings, tracing "The Rake's Progress",
showing a man's decline and fall.  Well, I'm interested in "Tom
Riddle's Progress", and would like to know just when he started down
the wrong path, and if it was obvious at the time.

Not to excuse Tom Riddle Jr., but we don't know when the laws were enacted 
that underage wizards couldn't use magic out of school. If the laws  weren't in 
place, then technically he wasn't breaking any law, except the ones about 
murder. Just a thought.
