I mean as in during DD's childhood, sorry about that. I know the 
age difference. XD There was mention of Flamel being 7 when his 
wife was born, right? (Just thinking.) But that was a much longer 
time before DD.

Maybe he was a teacher or something. It could be anything like 
that, the the two of them got working on a project together...

Flamel IS DD? Well, that's one that I -had- thought of before, 
first time I finished reading book 1, since Harry never SEES him 
in the series & he never finds an image of his face. For such an 
important back-character, he never showed up! If he was actually 
DD, it would make sense. I don't know though.

I don't remember ever actually reading that DD was 150. I had 
always had to guess. I don't keep up on every interview, but I 
never encountered this in a book. Did I miss it somewhere? How old 
is McGonnagall? I was certain that nothing was mentioned of a wizard's longevity, so I wouldn't have known if they could be 
potentially older than the book seems to imply.
