Sorting Hat as Horcrux?

  I really don't think the Sorting Hat is a horcrux. It seems very unlikely that LV had learned how to make one before he graduated and as far as we know he had had no access to it after he did. Horcrux is a banned subject at Hogwarts during DD's headmastership. From Slug's memory, if it wasn't banned then too it was definitely not something taught in school. 
   
  If we are to assume that the creation of multiple horcruxes is the reason LV doesn't look like a human now(he looked less and less human after the creation of another horcrux?), then I think that that LV still looked very much the handsome young wizard when he graduated showed that he hadn't yet created a horcrux. He may have created one a few years after he graduated as his eyes were reddish in the memory where he went to see the Hufflepuff cup and Slytherin's locket. 
   
  Also, as DD said, the horcrux is something to hide, ay? To put away in a safe place...with the exception of the Riddle diary. The Sorting Hat is too exposed and too unprotected. And I'd think the founding fathers would have put some protections on the hat to prevent it from contamination.IMHO.
