SSSusan:
I'm almost positive we know he was NOT yet glommed
onto Quirrell's head at the LC.  Not only is the
"ridiculous turban" first mentioned at the opening
feast, but I thought in the final confrontation w/
Quirrell, Q. tells Harry outright that, **after** Q.
botched the Gringotts PS/SS theft, THEN he decided he
needed to "stick by" Q. more closely and so actually
possessed him then.

I'm  without the books at the moment, but pretty sure
on this one.

SSSusan:
Sorry, there.  No imaginative replies from me.
